Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 375°F or 190°C.
• In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugar together until mixed and fluffy (About 2 min).
• Add in molasses and then eggs one at a time and mix until well combined.
• In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together flour, spices, baking soda, and salt. Add to wet mixture and mix until fully combined.
• Using a small cookie scoop or a regular spoon, scoop out a small round ball and roll it in your hand. You can choose to dip just the top half in the decorative sugar or to roll the whole cookie.
• Place on your cookie sheet and bake from 9-11 minutes. I find the sweet spot to be ten minutes but everyone's ovens are different. *Darker cookie sheets also tend to cook a little bit faster.
• Once the cookies have baked, leave them cool on the sheet for about five minutes to firm up. Transfer to a cooling rack.
• Enjoy with your favourite beverage!
