Chewy Molasses Cookies made from scratch. These buttery cookies are filled with warm spices and chunks of dark chocolate. They’re quick and easy – and perfect for Christmas and the holiday season!
These buttery cookies are crunchy and golden and filled to the brim with warm spices like ginger and cinnamon. Throw in a few dark chocolate chunks and a generous roll in sugar, and they’re a lovely twist on regular gingerbread cookies.
With plenty of fragrant spices and the deep smokey flavour of molasses, they smell and taste like Christmas.
