Fudgy “Molasses” Cookies
- Total Time: 20 minutes
- Yield: 24 cookies
Description
This cookie tastes somewhat like an old-fashioned molasses cookie, paired with the subtle spiced flavor of a gingersnap cookie. The result is a PERFECTLY fudgy, molasses-flavored cookie. Super soft and packed with the amazing, rich flavors of palm sugar, cacao powder and cinnamon, they taste just like cookies grandma used to make.
Ingredients
- 1 cup butter (room temperature)
- 1 cup coconut palm sugar
- 4 tablespoons milk
- 2 tablespoons pure vanilla extract
- 1 egg, beaten

- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon Himalayan pink salt
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon
- 1/3 cup dark chocolate chips
- 2 teaspoons cacao powder
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar. Add milk, vanilla and egg to creamed mixture. Mix until combined.
- In a separate bowl, combine dry ingredients (flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, chocolate chips, cacao powder). Mix to combine.
- Slowly add dry ingredients into wet. Mix until just combined. Place dough in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
- While the dough is chilling, preheat the oven to 375 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
