Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 2 1/2 cups AP flour; 1/3 cup minced crystallized ginger; 1 1/2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger; 1 1/2 teaspoons ground ginger; 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon; 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves; 2 teaspoons baking soda; 1/4 teaspoon salt; 3/4 cup unsalted butter (room temp); 1/2 cup light brown sugar (packed); 1/2 cup dark brown sugar (packed); 1 egg; 1/4 cup mild flavored molasses; 1 cup demarara sugar (for rolling); 30-40 dark chocolate Hershey's kisses

Servings: persons

2 1/2 cups AP flour
1/3 cup minced crystallized ginger
1 1/2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger
1 1/2 teaspoons ground ginger
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
2 teaspoons baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup unsalted butter (room temp)
1/2 cup light brown sugar (packed)
1/2 cup dark brown sugar (packed)
1 egg
1/4 cup mild flavored molasses
1 cup demarara sugar (for rolling)
30-40 dark chocolate Hershey's kisses

1
Whisk the flour, baking soda, and salt in a bowl, then stir in the crystallized ginger.
2
Put the butter in your stand mixer and beat it until its nice and creamy, about 2 minutes.
3
Beat in the brown sugars one at a time, then keep it going at medium-high speed for about 3 minutes. Get 'em fluffy, folks.
4
Mix in the egg, molasses, both remaining gingers, cinnamon, and cloves. Then add half the flour stuff in, mix it in on low, and add the other half.
5
Now's the time when I tell you to stop being fat and refrigerate the dough overnight, so the flavors can get nice and groovy. And you want groovy flavors...don't you?
6
Get a small, wide bowl and pour the demarara sugar in it. Roll yourself some dough balls (about 1 1/2 tsp per ball, it should be a little smaller than a golf ball) and roll the balls in the sugar.
7
Preheat your oven to 350.
8
Line a couple baking sheets with parchment and put the cookie balls on them, about 1 1/2 inches apart.
9
Stick them in the oven, one on the top rack and one in the middle. Bake for 8 minutes, switch 'em, and bake for another 7. If they're just barely cracked, you're golden.
10
IMMEDIATELY stick the cookies on a cooling rack and gently press a chocolate kiss into the middle of each one, then let them cool for 5 minutes. No fancy cooling time here.
11
Eat.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
