     Molasses Triple Chocolate Cookies

Category   Desserts - Breads
Sub Category   None
Servings   18 cookies
Preptime   20 min

Ingredients
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
1 egg
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup molasses
2 tablespoons canola or vegetable oil
1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 tablespoon cocoa powder
2 teaspoons cinnamon
 
1 1/2 teaspoon ginger
1 teaspoon cloves
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 1/4- 2 1/2 cups flour
1 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 cup semi sweet chocolate chips
5 oz bittersweet or dark baking chocolate, roughly chopped
3/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon

Instructions
For the Cookies - In a large microwave-safe mixing bowl, melt the butter, about 1 minute on high power. To the slightly cooled butter (so you don't scramble the egg), add the next eleven ingredients - the egg, 1 cup brown sugar, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, molasses, oil, vanilla, 2 teaspoons cinnamon, ginger, cloves, salt and whisk vigorously to combine until batter is smooth and silky. Add the flour, baking, soda and stir to just incorporate; batter will be thick (Note regarding flour- I live in San Diego and it's incredibly dry here this time of year and I likely need less flour than other climates. I used 2 1/4 cups plus about 2 tablespoons flour. Depending on your climate and humidity, you may wish to start with 2 1/4 cups and increase to 2 1/2 cups flour, as necessary. The dough should be quite thick, albeit sticky and tacky, courtesy of the molasses)
Fold in the chocolate chips and chocolate baking chunks (I used nearly 6 ounces; using a total of 1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips is okay if you don't have baking chocolate or a chocolate bar to chop). Cover mixing bowl or transfer batter to an airtight food storage container and refrigerate dough for at least 2 hours, up to 5 days, prior to baking. Preheat oven to 350F, line two baking trays with Silpat Non-Stick Baking Mats liners, parchment, or spray with cooking spray; set aside. For the Cinnamon-Sugar Coating for Rolling - In a small bowl, combine about 3/4 cup granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, and stir to combine.
Using a cookie scoop, form 2-ounce mounds of dough and roll each ball through the cinnamon-sugar mixture and place on baking trays, spaced about 2 inches apart (I bake 8 to a tray). Allow cookies to bake in fairly domed-up, mounded, ball-like shapes. Bake for about 8 to 9 minutes, or until tops have just set, taking care not to overbake so they stay soft and chewy. Note - The cookies in the photos are baked for exactly 8 minutes, and they're soft with melted chocolate.
Upon removing trays from oven, if cookies stayed domed while baking (likely they will) immediately give cookies a firm yet gentle tap or two with the back of a spoon to flatten them. This creates a crackled top appearance and exposes some of the melted chocolate chips and chunks. Allow cookies to cool on baking sheets for about 5 minutes before moving them to a rack to finish cooling. Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
