Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 30 min
Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 1 cup Softened, Unsalted Butter; 1 cup Brown Sugar; 1 Egg; 1/4 cups Molasses; 2-1/2 cups Flour; 2-1/4 teaspoons Baking Soda; 1 Tablespoon Ground Ginger; 1 Tablespoon Ground Cinnamon; 1-1/2 teaspoon Ground Nutmeg; 1/2 teaspoons Ground Allspice; 1/2 cups White Sugar; 1 cup White Chocolate Chips; 1 teaspoon Coconut Oil

Servings: persons

1 cup Softened, Unsalted Butter
1 cup Brown Sugar
1 Egg
1/4 cups Molasses
2-1/2 cups Flour
2-1/4 teaspoons Baking Soda
1 Tablespoon Ground Ginger
1 Tablespoon Ground Cinnamon
1-1/2 teaspoon Ground Nutmeg
1/2 teaspoons Ground Allspice
1/2 cups White Sugar
1 cup White Chocolate Chips
1 teaspoon Coconut Oil

1
Beat butter, brown sugar, egg, and molasses until combined.
2
In a separate bowl, mix together flour, baking soda, ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice. Stir dry ingredients into wet ingredients. Form dough into a ball, cover with plastic wrap and put in the fridge overnight. If you don't have that much time, 3 hours should be long enough.
3
Take dough out and let it come to room temperature. Roll dough into 1-inch balls and roll in sugar to coat. Place on cookie sheet and bake at 350u00b0F for 8 minutes. Watch closely and remove them from oven before they look like they are done. Cool completely.
4
For the white chocolate, heat chocolate with coconut oil in a double boiler on the stove top or in 30-second intervals in the microwave. I simply use a glass bowl above a pot of simmering water, as I don't have a double boiler.
5
Dip each cookie in chocolate and place on parchment paper to set up.
6
Enjoy!
