Ingredients

24 servings
  • 1½ cups + 1 tablespoon all purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon unsweetened Dutch-process cocoa powder
  • 1¼ teaspoons ground ginger
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cloves
  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, (softened)
  • 1 tablespoon grated peeled fresh ginger
  • ½ cup packed dark brown sugar
  • ¼ cup molasses
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda, (dissolved in 1½ teaspoons boiling water)
  • 7 ounces best-quality semi-sweet chocolate, (cut into ¼ inch pieces)
  • ¼ cup granulated white sugar

Steps

  1. Sift the flour, cocoa powder, ground ginger, cinnamon, cloves and nutmeg into a medium bowl; set aside.

  2. Put butter and grated ginger into the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Mix on medium speed until lightened, about 4 minutes. Add brown sugar; mix until combined. Add molasses; mix until combined.

  3. Mix in the flour mixture in 2 batches, alternating with the baking soda mixture. Mix in chocolate. Transfer dough to a piece of plastic wrap. Pat dough to about 1-inch thick; wrap in plastic. Refrigerate until firm, about 2 hours (or overnight).

  4. Preheat the oven to 325°F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Roll dough into 1½ inch balls and space 2 inches apart on baking sheets. Refrigerate 20 minutes.

  5. Roll balls in granulated sugar. Bake until surfaces crack slightly, 10 to 12 minutes. Let cool on sheets 5 minutes. Transfer to wire rack, and let cool completely.
