OLD FASHIONED SOFT MOLASSES COOKIES

Please See Other Recipes

I can’t remember the first time that I ever had molasses cookies, but I was young, and even now the first bite sends me straight back to my childhood.  Everyone loves these soft cookies so much, especially my mom, and it’s safe to say she is probably the first person to ever make these for me.
While I definitely still call these an “old fashioned style” cookie, there are a few changes that I have made to this recipe over the years to suit our preferences and ease of baking
These molasses cookies come out perfect!  Slightly crisp around the edges with a super soft, melt in your mouth, center!  You’re going to love them!
