Ginger Cookies
Not your ordinary ginger cookie. We up the
zing with chopped, crystalized ginger in these
chewy and spicy treats.
Makes about 2½ dozen cookies
cups unbleached, all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 tablespoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon ground allspice
¾ teaspoon kosher salt
¼ cup finely chopped crystalized
ginger
12 tablespoons (1½ sticks) unsalted
butter, cut into 1-inch pieces,
room temperature
¼ cup molasses
¾ cup packed light brown sugar
¼ cup granulated sugar
1 large egg, room temperature
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
¹⁄
³
cup turbinado sugar, for rolling
1. Preheat oven to 350°F with racks in the
lower and upper thirds of the oven. Line
two baking sheets with parchment paper.
2.
Put the flour, baking soda, spices, and
salt into a medium mixing bowl. Using
the beaters, mix on Speed 1 to fully
combine, at least 30 seconds. Add the
chopped ginger and mix on Speed 1 to
coat; reserve.
3.
Put the butter and molasses into a large
mixing bowl. Mix, starting at Speed 2 and
increasing to Speed 5, until homogenous,
about 2 minutes. Scrape down the sides
of the bowl and then add the sugars.
Mix on Speeds 2 to 4 until very light,
where it seems that much of the sugar
has dissolved into the butter/molasses,
about 2 minutes. Add the egg, mixing
on Speeds 2 to 3, and then the vanilla
extract. Add the dry ingredients and mix
on Speed 2 until just combined.
4.
Put the turbinado sugar into a shallow
bowl or baking pan.
5.
Scoop the dough into evenly sized,
golf-ball rounds. Roll in the turbinado
sugar and then place the sugared dough
on a parchment-lined tray or baking
sheet. Gently press each round down
with the bottom of a clean glass.
6.
Bake in the preheated oven until just set
at the edges, about 12 to 15 minutes.
Allow pans to cool before baking
remaining dough.
