Servings: persons

3/4 cups Unsalted Butter, melted
1 cup Light Brown Sugar
1 whole Large Egg, At Room Temperature
1/4 cups Molasses
1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
2 cups All-purpose Flour
1 teaspoon Baking Soda
1/2 teaspoons Salt
2 teaspoons Cinnamon
1 teaspoon Ground Cloves
1 teaspoon Ground Ginger
1-1/2 cup Gingerbread M&M Candies
1 cup Sugar

1
In a large bowl, mix together the melted butter, light brown sugar, and egg until smooth. Stir in the molasses and vanilla extract. Set aside.
2
In another bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, cloves, and ginger. Mix dry ingredients into the molasses mixture. Stir in 1 cup of the gingerbread M&M candies. Cover and chill dough for 1 hour.
3
Preheat oven to 375 F. Roll dough into walnut sized balls and roll them in the remaining 1 cup of granulated sugar. Place cookies 2 inches apart on parchment paper-lined baking sheets. Using the bottom of a flat glass, gently press down on the cookies to lightly flatten. With the remaining gingerbread M&Ms, add a few candies to the top/sides of each cookie, pressing them slightly in.
4
Bake for 7-8 minutes, until tops are cracked. Remove baking sheets from the oven and set them on a rack. Allow the cookies to cool on the sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely. Store the cookies in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
