Chewy Molasses Cookies

My boys think that a cookie without chocolate is a waste, until I introduced them to these Molasses cookies.

If you’re looking for a way to satisfy your sweet tooth in a unique way, give these delicious morsels a try!

If you’ve never had a molasses cookie, you’re missing out.
I’m a big fan of the combination of sweet and salty. And the molasses and sugar in this cookie give it just that!
