Catch a whiff of these gingerbread cookies baking in the oven and you’ll immediately get thinking about the holidays – ginger, cinnamon, cloves, and bitter orange!

Preparation Time: 20 min

Baking Time: 10 min

Resting Time: 4 hrs (or overnight)

Equipment

Food Processor
Medium Bowl
2 Large Baking Pans (lined with parchment paper)
Wire Baking Rack

Ingredients

2 cups All-Purpose Flour
1 cup Sugar
4 tbsp Dark Molasses
¾ cup Butter
1 Egg (Large)
1½ tsp Salt
2 tsp Baking Soda
1 tsp Ground Ginger
½ tsp Ground Cinnamon
½ tsp Ground Cloves
1 tsp Orange Zest

Instructions

Measure up and place all the ingredients into a food processor and process until a dough forms. Transfer to a bowl and chill in the refrigerator for a few hours (but we find that the best is to keep it chilling overnight).
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two large baking pans with parchment paper.
Place roughly tablespoon sized scoops of dough onto a baking pan 2-inches apart. Press the dough flat with your fingers, then sprinkle sugar lightly over them. Bake until a golden brown hue develops, about 10 minutes. Remove from the oven, let cool for a few minutes and then transfer to a baking rack to cool fully.

Notes

Christmas time can be the busiest time so if you want to bake these ahead, store them between sheets of wax paper sheets in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks, or freeze them for up to 2 months.
