Mama's heavenly molasses cookies.

My goal for this post was to give you proper motivation for your afternoon snack. Just the word cookie…and I’m in search of. But these molasses cookies are possibly my all time favorite, and Heather was kind enough to bake these at my request. I think I had around 15 while I photographed this. Seriously. I loved every one. It’s actually driving me crazy that there are some left in the kitchen right now, as I write this. I’ll be right back…….grab your coffee and enjoy!
(Just ask if you want the recipe)
EDIT….recipe is in the comments

Thank you for posting the recipe! You didn’t give the tip on how to make them come out so perfect!

OK, here’s the tip! Heather and I like them a little gooey, so closer to 6- 6 1/2 minutes. The cookies in the picture were about 7 1/2. They still tasted great, however! 🙂
