Ingredients
Instructions
In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup sugar, melted butter, and egg. Stir until smooth.
Mix in the ¼ cup molasses until fully incorporated.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, salt, cloves, and ginger. Add this to the wet mixture and stir until a soft, sticky dough forms.
Cover the dough and refrigerate for 1 hour.
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Roll dough into 1-inch balls, coat in the remaining ½ cup sugar, and place 2 inches apart on an ungreased baking sheet.
Bake for 8–10 minutes, or until the tops are cracked but the centers still look soft.
Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
