Incredible cookies! I went a bit heavier on the cardamom because I like cardamom. I see some commenters saying they had trouble getting the texture right, it really is important to let them cool *on the baking sheet* for at least ten minutes before you touch them.

Can you refrigerate the dough overnight, and bake it the next morning?

Love this recipe! I added one egg, and it came out excellent. We don’t have any allergies here, so it works! Thank you!

I never comment on recipes but just made these and they came out SO GOOD! Crispy on the outside, soft and chewy on the inside. I used coconut oil. I did have to add a few extra drops of water to the dough, but otherwise followed the recipe exactly. My kid loved them too!

Delicious and easy to make. I only needed an egg free recipe, so I still used regular butter. Don’t skip rolling in sugar! It takes an extra second and taste and appearance are worth it!

I really liked this recipe. I did, however, not have enough powdered ginger and had to sub a TBSP of ginger paste–seemed like a lot, but that’s what the internet told me was the sub. One batch, made with slightly larger balls, came out cakes. The other made with slightly smaller balls and cooked about a minute longer because I was washing my mixer when the timer went off, came out chewy. This was the perfect situation because my house is split on molasses cookie texture preference. Will make again, probably with the ginger paste sub in the future.
