Ingredients
- 9 oz butter
- 2 eggs
- 1.25 cups brown sugar
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 2 tsp powdered ginger
- 2.25 cups flour

- 2 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 0.25 cup molasses
- 2 tsp grated fresh ginger
- 2 tsp baking soda
- 1.5 tsp ground clove
Next, it’s time to get mixing and baking.
Steps
- Cream the butter, brown sugar, salt, and spices
- Mix in molasses, then mix in eggs
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the baking soda and flour, then add that to the dough and mix
- Scoop the mixture with a 1 oz ice cream scoop, roll it in the demerara sugar, and then flatten it slightly
- Bake at 325° F for about ten minutes until they are golden and slightly cracked
The final (and most important) step? EAT! In just a few minutes, you can get these gingersnap cookies all baked and ready to be enjoyed.
