Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 2 1/4 cups all purpose flour; 1 teaspoon baking powder; 1/2 teaspoon baking soda; 1 tablespoon ground ginger; 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon; 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg; 1/2 teaspoon salt; 16 tablespoons (2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature; 3/4 cup sugar; 1/4 cup brown sugar; 1 egg; 1 teaspoon vanilla; 1/2 cup blackstrap molasses; 2/3 cup chopped candied ginger (see note); 1/4 cup unsweetened dried cherries

Servings: persons

2 1/4 cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 tablespoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon salt
16 tablespoons (2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature
3/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cup blackstrap molasses
2/3 cup chopped candied ginger (see note)
1/4 cup unsweetened dried cherries

1
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt; set aside.
2
In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream together butter, sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in egg. Add vanilla and molasses and beat until incorporated. Add dry ingredients to the bowl and beat until just combined. Use a wooden spoon or rubber spatula to fold in candied ginger and cherries. Wrap dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour.
3
Adjust oven rack to upper and lower-middle positions and preheat oven to 350u00b0F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Drop dough by the rounded tablespoon (I like to use a 2 1/2 ounce cookie scoop) onto prepared baking sheets. Bake until darkened and color and just drying on top, about 15 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes then transfer to a wire rack to finish cooling.
