Vegan Ginger Cookies

all purpose flour

tsp baking soda

tsp baking powder

ginger

cloves

tsp sea salt

tahini

molasses (unsulphured)

maple syrup

tsp vanilla extract

dark chocolate (finely chopped)

Preheat oven to 350 and line a rimmed baking sheet with unbleached parchment paper.

Finely chop chocolate and set aside in a shallow bowl.

Combine flour, baking soda, baking powder, ginger, cinnamon, cloves and salt in a medium sized bowl. Mix thoroughly. You&#39;ll want to make sure baking powder is evenly distributed throughout.

In a small bowl, mix together wet ingredients (tahini, molasses, maple syrup and vanilla) until well combined.

Pour wet ingredients into the dry and mix until just combined.

Portion out cookies: Scoop* 1-2 Tablespoons of dough out and drop into bowl of chopped chocolate. Turn cookie over so chocolate is on top and place on prepared cookie sheet, leaving 2-3&quot; between cookies so they have room to spread.

Bake in preheated oven for 10 minutes.

Let cookies cool for 5 minutes on tray, so chocolate isn&#39;t so gooey, and then transfer to a wire rack and allow cool completely before storing.

Cookies will stay good at room temperature for up to a week, or in the freezer for 3 months.

Soft and chewy ginger cookies with chunks of candied ginger for extra chew and ginger flavour

Chewy Ginger Cookies

all-purpose flour

baking soda

cinnamon

salt

unsalted butter (softened to room temperature)

g sugar

brown sugar

g fancy

egg (room temperature)

vanilla extract

70 g candied ginger (finely chopped)

granulated sugar (for rolling)

Prep: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Line a second baking sheet or cutting board with parchment paper. The first baking sheet will be used to bake the cookies and the second sheet will be used to chill the cookie dough so it can be a plate, cutting board, or any kind of flat surface. Set both aside.

Flour mixture: In a medium bowl, stir together flour, baking soda, ground ginger, cinnamon, and salt. Set aside.

Cream butter and sugar: In a large mixing bowl, add the softened butter. Use an electric hand mixer to beat the butter until it becomes very creamy. Add the granulated sugar and brown sugar and beat together until creamy and fluffy. Mix in the molasses until well combined.

Mix in egg: Add the egg and vanilla extract and mix on low speed until combined.

Combine wet and dry mixtures: Add the flour mixture and mix on low speed until just barely combined with lots of flour patches remaining. Add the candied ginger and finish mixing with the hand mixer or switch to a spatula to avoid overmixing.

Scoop and chill cookie dough: Use a 4-tablespoon cookie scooper to scoop the cookie dough onto your lined cutting board. No need to space them apart. Let the entire board chill in the fridge for about 15 minutes until the dough is firm to the touch. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350°F while you wait.

Roll in sugar: Once chilled, roll each cookie dough ball in between your hands until it forms a round shape. Roll the dough ball in granulated sugar until coated. Place the cookie dough balls on your lined baking sheet, leaving about 2&quot; in between each ball to account for spreading.

Bake: Bake cookies for 12-14 minutes or until the exterior of the cookies is dry and set but the dough in between the cracks still looks slightly wet and underdone. The insides of the cookies will set as they cool and become the chewy centers that we&#39;re aiming for.

Cool: Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Excellent flavor and texture. I followed the receipe to the letter. Weighed my ingredients and chilled the dough. The only thing is that my cookies spread and were very thin. Not sure what went wrong.

I've been craving for ginger molasses cookies and this recipe caught my eye because of two spices that have been omitted- cloves and nutmeg, which I'm not a huge fan of! These cookies tasted way better than my local coffee shop cookies that sell $4 each! Cheers to sharing this awesome recipe! Thank you!

These cookies are hands down the best ginger cookies I’ve ever had/made! The chewy texture from the dough and also the pieces of candied ginger is to die for.

a bit too much molasses in flavor for me personally, and underbaking the cookie resulted in it being a bit too gooey

This recipe was fantastic!! Super easy to make and turned out so so well. I decreased the granulated sugar by 20 grams but they were still a bit too sweet for my taste (I’ve got an east Asian palate haha), but delicious nonetheless. I also added pecans (already roasted) to the mix which paired super well with the ginger. Thank you for the brilliant recipe, it’s going to be a new staple of mine (along with your matcha mochi cookies)!!

Absolutely delicious! Perfect balance in taste and texture. Thank you!!!

Best ginger cookies!! Love the chewy texture of the cookies.

These turned out great! I really really like the recipe. The only tricky thing is that it was difficult to convert the measurements for grams into cups. Not sure if I missed an option to convert the units here, but I used an online calculator and it was fine. Also, for my oven, 12-14 minutes was not enough time to cook them properly, so you might have to play around with the time. I love that I didn’t need a lot of equipment and I had most of the ingredients in my pantry already. Thank you!

Why is this not viral? You’re a great baker and photographer, keep going!  The cookies were DELICIOUS, i shared some with my family and they loved them!! ☺️ It was pretty easy too
