2 cups All Purpose Flour

2 teaspoons Baking Soda

1 Tablespoon Ginger Powder

1 teaspoon Cinnamon Powder

Preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F) and prepare baking trays with parchment paper.

Add molasses and egg. Mix till combined.

In another bowl, mix together ginger powder, cinnamon powder, nutmeg powder, flour, baking soda and salt.

Add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and mix till it forms into a dough.

Pour ½ cup of sugar into a bowl.

Take 1 Tablespoon of dough and roll it into a ball. Drop the dough ball into the bowl of sugar and coat.

Place balls on prepared baking tray about 2 inches apart from each other. I would suggest 12 balls per tray.

Bake for 10-12 minutes. *Please pay attention to the cookies 8 minutes in. Baking times may vary.

Allow cookies to cool down on baking tray for 10 minutes before transferring to cooling rack.

Store in an air tight container.
