- Take a large bowl and mix the all-purpose flour, ground ginger, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, cloves and nutmeg. Set that aside and take another large bowl. Whip softened butter for about a minute and beat brown sugar until light and fluffy. Sunehra Mineral Brown Sugar by Trust will give a caramelized touch to your gingersnaps and add extra softness to it. Add egg, vanilla extract and molasses to the mixture and blend well.
- Add the dry ingredients slowly to the wet ingredients and be careful not to overmix. Take a foil and wrap the dough completely. Chill the dough in your refrigerator for at least 2 hours or up to 3-4 days.
- Preheat your oven to 177°C (350°F) and line your baking sheet with parchment paper. Make small balls of the dough and roll them in granulated sugar. Classic Sulphurless Sugar by Trust gives the perfect sweet coating to your gingersnaps while preventing your family from the harmful effects of sulphur. Bake the balls for about 10-12 minutes or until the edges start turning brown. The cookies will be puffy and still appear soft in the middle.
- Remove the baking tray from the oven and allow the cookies to cool for about 2 minutes. Cool them further before storing them in an airtight container.
