I am so looking forward to showing you
0:02
how to make my warm and cozy soft ginger
0:04
molasses cookies with white chocolate
0:07
icing. We're going to start by mixing
0:08
together our sweeteners and our butter.
0:10
We'll start with 2/3 of a cup of coconut
0:13
sugar and half a cup or one stick of
0:15
unsalted butter, 1/4 a cup of molasses,
0:19
2 tbsp of maple syrup, and 1 teasp of
0:22
vanilla extract. And then I'll go ahead
0:23
and just mix these together until well
0:25
combined.
0:27
Next, I'm going to add one egg. And then
0:29
we're going to mix this together just
0:30
until it's incorporated.
0:34
I can already smell that molasses and it
0:36
smells so good. Now we can add our dry
0:38
ingredients, which includes 2 and 1/2
0:40
cups of almond flour, 1 cup of oat
0:43
flour, 2 tbsp of tapioca flour or
0:45
tapioca starch. And then I'm going to
0:48
add 1 teasp of ginger, half a teaspoon
0:50
of cinnamon, 14 a teaspoon of nutmeg,
0:53
half a teaspoon salt, and half a
0:55
teaspoon of baking soda. We'll just dump
0:57
those right on top. And then we'll just
0:59
mix these together until they're well
1:00
combined and we have a very soft cookie
1:02
dough.
1:04
Well, that looks perfect. And now I can
1:06
smell the ginger and the cinnamon. And
1:08
now you'll want to prep your baking
1:09
sheet by adding a sheet of parchment
1:11
paper on top. And I have found this
1:13
makes it super easy for getting the
1:14
cookies on and off of the tray. I'm
1:17
going to use my mediumsiz cookie scoop
1:19
to scoop the batter right onto our
1:20
baking sheet. And then once you've
1:22
scooped all your cookies, you can go
1:24
back and kind of touch them up with the
1:25
tip of your finger if needed, just to
1:27
kind of smooth down any high points and
1:29
make them nice and round. But they will
1:31
spread and flatten on their own as they
1:33
bake. Well, those look fantastic and
1:35
they are ready to go into a 350° oven
1:38
for about 11 or 12 minutes. Now, we can
1:41
make our white chocolate icing. And I
1:43
really like using melted chocolate
1:44
instead of refined powdered white sugar
1:47
because then you can buy the white
1:48
chocolate chips that meet your dietary
1:50
needs. So, you'll need 1/3 cup of either
1:52
white chocolate chips or the wafers. And
1:54
you'll want to put them in a microwave
1:56
safe bowl. Then, I'm going to add 1
1:58
teaspoon of coconut oil. And then I'm
2:01
going to heat this in the microwave in
2:02
20 second intervals until that chocolate
2:04
is nice and melted. So, after our second
2:06
interval of 20 seconds, you can see that
2:08
they're starting to melt. So, I'm just
2:10
going to keep stirring it and then kind
2:11
of mash it with my spatula to melt down
2:13
some of those larger pieces. There we
2:15
go. Now, that is nice and smooth. Well,
2:18
here's a batch of cookies that I took
2:20
out of the oven and then allowed to cool
2:21
on my counter. And you can see how
2:24
beautiful these are. They just have a
2:25
really pretty round shape to it and just
2:27
the right thickness. To apply the icing
2:30
on top of the cookies, you could just
2:31
take a spoonful of the chocolate and
2:33
just drizzle it back and forth. Or I
2:35
found it's a little bit easier to pipe
2:36
it inside of a little sandwich bag. I'm
2:39
going to poke it inside of a jar just to
2:41
hold it open for me and then pour in the
2:43
chocolate. And then I'm going to cut off
2:45
just a very small little triangle so I
2:48
can have a very fine bead of chocolate.
2:50
Okay, here we go. So, I'm just going to
2:52
string it back and forth. Oh, that looks
2:55
so good. This is coming out very
2:57
quickly. So, I can just keep going on
2:59
each of the cookies. Well, that was
3:01
super easy. And those look so good. Now,
3:04
if you're patient, you can put these out
3:05
on the counter until that chocolate sets
3:07
or you can put it into your fridge to
3:09
help the chocolate set a little bit
3:10
quicker. Or you can just enjoy one while
3:12
the chocolate is still nice and soft.
3:18
That is so good. That is a burst of all
3:21
those delicious flavors that you want in
3:23
a ginger molasses cookie. I instantly
3:26
get the gingerbread flavor coming in
3:28
with the molasses. And the amount of
3:29
ginger is just right, so it's not
3:31
overpowering. And that cookie just has
3:33
the perfect texture. It's crispy and
3:35
lightly toasted on the outside and then
3:37
super soft and chewy on the inside. And
3:40
there's such a depth of flavor to enjoy
3:42
because it's not overpowered with too
3:43
much refined white sugar. Well, thank
3:45
