How to make it

  • Mix together flour, baking soda, cinnamon, ground ginger and salt in large bowl. Set aside.
  • In large mixing bowl, beat butter and sugar together til well blended and a lil fluffy.
  • Add eggs, one at a time, beating well between each addition.
  • Add vanilla and beat well, again.
  • Add molasses and mix well.
  • Add dry ingredients, a lil at a time, mixing well, but not beating, after each addition, to incorporate. Do not over mix.
  • Add grated ginger then give it another lil stir just to mix it through.
  • Refrigerate dough for a couple hours.
  • When ready to bake, pour the remaining 1 cup of raw sugar into a small, shallow dish.
  • Using your hands pull off small chunks of the dough and roll between your palms lightly to create some roundish pieces, about walnut sized(or a lil bigger). Don't make them too smooth or too perfect .... these do better when they are rustic and loosely formed.
  • Roll each cookie dough ball in the sugar then place on a baking stone or parchment lined sheet, and bake at 375 for about 12 minutes. This should yield a firm cookie, great for dunking, but if you want them softer, bake a couple minutes less.
  • Let rest on stone/sheet for a couple minutes, then remove to wire rack to cool.
