Brown Sugar Cookies

Open in Supper to scale servings and turn this into a grocery list.

Steps

1. Step 1

   Brown Sugar Topping. In a small bowl, add the brown sugar and set aside.

2. Step 2

   In a medium mixing bowl, sift the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

3. Step 3

   In a large mixing bowl, add dark brown sugar, and butter, and beat with a hand mixer for 2-3 minutes.

4. Step 4

   Add the vanilla and molasses. Beat until well combined.

5. Step 5

   Add the egg and egg yolk. Beat until well combined.

6. Step 6

   Add your "sifted flour mixture" into your wet batter and mix with a wooden spoon or rubber spatula until combined. Be sure not to over mix.

7. Step 7

   Transfer the cookie dough to a fridge and let chill for at least 30 minutes to allow the flour to hydrate (Pro tip: Allowing your dough to refrigerate for 2 hours will result in the best flavored cookie; however, 30 minutes works just fine.)

8. Step 8

   Rreheat your oven to 350°F. Line a nonstick baking sheet with parchment paper.

9. Step 9

   Remove your chilled dough from the refrigerator. Use a 2 tablespoon-sized cookie scoop to scoop a ball of cookie dough. Roll the cookie dough into ball and roll it into the sugar topping. Once covered in sugar topping, place the cookie dough on a lined baking sheet. The dough should be about 2 -3 inches apart.

10. Step 10

    Bake the cookies at 350 degrees for about 9-11 minutes or until the edges of the cookies are set and the center is soft. Let the cookies rest for about 15-20 minutes or until set. I'll be hard, but worth the wait.
