Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup (115 g) unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup (100 g) brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup (50 g) granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/4 cup (60 ml) molasses
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 3/4 cups (220 g) all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp ground ginger
  • 1/4 tsp ground cloves
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 cup (180 g) white chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add the egg, molasses, and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, ground ginger, ground cloves, and salt.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until a soft dough forms. Fold in the white chocolate chips.
  5. Scoop out dough using a tablespoon or cookie scoop and roll into balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
  6. Bake the cookies for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers are still soft. Be careful not to overbake.
  7. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack.
