Cook Mode

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

Whisk the dry ingredients together; all-purpose flour, ground cloves, ground ginger, cinnamon, and salt, set aside
Mix the wet ingredients with an electric mixer in another bowl; vegetable oil and granulated sugar until combined
Add in the molasses and egg, mix again
Combine the dry to the wet ingredients by an electric mixer at first in a few batches and fold the rest of the flour with a spatula, do not over mix
Chill the dough for 2 hours, and cover the mixing bowl with plastic wrap
Preheat oven to 375F
Once chill time is up, roll the molasses cookie dough into 1-inch balls, then roll in a small bowl of turbinado sugar
Place cookies on a parchment paper lined baking sheet
Bakes in the oven for about 8 to 10 minutes (until cookies begin to crack)
Cookies should cool for at least 5 minutes on the baking sheet
You can then transfer them to an airtight container once cooled

Notes

Super addictive! Feel free to cut down the sugar by 1/2 cup if desired to be less sweet (: You can also swap the olive oil for regular vegtable oil!
