Perfect Spiced Molasses Cookies - Flora Foodie

Perfect Spiced Molasses Cookies

Welcome to the week that will be full of alcohol and baked goods.  Because that’s what my weekend was full of.  Partially influenced by hormones and partly by the cold, I spent my weekend eating surprisingly healthy meals (I loaded up on salads, roasted veggies, surprisingly healthy pasta sauce, and skewered Brussels sprouts from a food truck.  Yeah.  Preston even ate Brussels sprouts twice and actually liked them. Both times.  So proud.), but added generous amounts of sugar and alcohol.  That’s just what I wanted, apparently.

First up are these molasses cookies.  I wanted to make molasses cookies for awhile, but didn’t want to do a blind experiment.  So I planned to search for a recipe to use.  Then I happened to open a random email from some list I signed up for and have never acknowledged before – Top Recipes on Pinterest, and guess what was up front?  These molasses cookies.  They looked perfect.

They were really easy to veganize.  Here are the substitutions I made:
1 large egg >> 1 “flax egg” (mix 1 T ground flax seeds with 2 T water and let sit until it gels up)

butter >> Earth Balance margarine

That’s it!  Just follow the recipe and enjoy 🙂  They are so warm and chewy and satisfying.  I want to dip them in hot chai tea or a soy nog latte.  Nom. 

Recipe here!
