Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 0.25 cup Cocoa powder
• 1 teaspoon Ground ginger
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground cloves
• 1 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.75 cup Unsalted butter, softened
• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.25 cup Molasses
• 1 unit Large egg
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.75 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 0.5 cup Powdered sugar (for rolling)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, ground ginger, cinnamon, cloves, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and granulated sugar together using a hand or stand mixer until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 4

Add the molasses, egg, and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture. Beat until fully incorporated.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until a dough forms.

Step 6

Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips using a spatula or wooden spoon.

Step 7

Scoop 1-inch balls of dough using a cookie scoop or your hands. Roll each ball in powdered sugar until fully coated.

Step 8

Place the powdered-sugar-coated dough balls onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 9-11 minutes, or until the cookies are just set and the tops have crinkled.

Step 10

Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 11

Serve warm or at room temperature. Store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
