Directions

45 min.
1. Step

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees (175 degrees Celsius). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

2. Step

In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, salt, ground ginger, and cinnamon.

3. Step

In a separate bowl, beat the butter and sugar together until fluffy. Then beat in the egg, followed by the molasses, until just combined.

4. Step

Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet, mixing just until incorporated. Fold in the chopped candied ginger.

5. Step

Roll the dough into 1 inch (2.5cm) balls, then roll in granulated sugar. Place them about 2 inches (5cm) apart on the prepared baking sheets.

6. Step

Bake for about 10-12 minutes or until the cookies are puffed and slightly golden. They will be soft coming out of the oven but will firm up as they cool. Allow them to cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
