Canadian Molasses Cookies
I have no idea if they are actually Canadian; that's just what they're called.
1 cup dark molasses ¼ cup packed brown sugar 1 tsp vinegar 2 1/3 cups flour 2 Tbsp fresh grated ginger root 2 tsp baking soda 1 egg ½ tsp salt
Preheat oven to 350° F. Grease cookie sheets.
In a large bowl, stir together the molasses, brown sugar, vinegar, and egg.
In another bowl, stir together the flour, baking soda, ginger and salt, then add to molasses mixture. Mix until well blended.
The dough is very sticky, so keep your hands wet with water to roll the dough into little balls.
Place balls on cookie sheets, about 2 inches apart. They spread a lot while baking. Bake until edges are golden, about 8-11 minutes. They should be kind of gooey still but noticeably cooked. Let cool on pans for 5 minutes before removing, they use this time to set/finish cooking.
