Fall Chocolate Chip Spiced Cookie
- 12 Tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 large egg
- 2 Tablespoons molasses
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
- Just a dash of ground cloves
- 1 1/2 cups chocolate chips
Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a large mixing bowl, beat butter, brown sugar, and sugar for 4 minutes until light and fluffy.
- Add molasses and egg and mix for 1 minute longer.
- Fold in flour, baking soda, cornstarch, salt, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, and chocolate chips.
- Roll into 4-ounce, 5-ounce, or 6-ounce balls. Place on a parchment paper lined baking sheet. I prefer to use light-colored baking sheets.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes. The cookies will still be slightly underdone when you remove them from the oven. Let the cookies sit for 10-15 minutes before moving them from the baking sheet.
