Directions

• Set oven to 350F
• Cream the butter, sugar, and cocoa powder until creamy.
• Blend in the egg and molasses.
• Whisk the flour, baking soda, and spices to together. Add to the wet ingredients and blend just until combined. Dont over mix.
• Scoop dough into small balls, I used my 1 1/2 inch diameter cookie scoop, and roll them in the sugar to coat.
• Set the dough on an ungreased cookie sheet ( you can line with a silpat mat or parchment paper) at least 2 inches apart.
• Bake for 8-10 minutes depending on size. They will look slightly under done, but will firm up as they cool.
• Let the cookies cool for 10 minutes in the pan, then transfer to a rack.
