Sposób przygotowania

Krok po kroku

  1. 1

    In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to cream the vegetable shortening and the dough's granulated sugar until light and fluffy.

    Około 3 min

    Wskazówka kucharza: Start with room temperature shortening for easier creaming.

  2. 2

    Beat in the egg until well combined.

    Około 1 min

  3. 3

    In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, ground ginger, ground cinnamon, and ground allspice.

    Około 2 min

    Wskazówka kucharza: Whisking the dry ingredients ensures the leaveners and spices are evenly distributed.

  4. 4

    In a small bowl or measuring cup, stir together the molasses and cooled coffee until combined.

    Około 1 min

  5. 5

    Add about one-third of the dry ingredients to the creamed mixture and mix on low speed, then add half of the molasses mixture and mix. Repeat, ending with the final third of the dry ingredients.

    Około 3 min

    Wskazówka kucharza: Mix until just combined after each addition to avoid overworking the dough.

  6. 6

    Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill the dough in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

    Około 30 min

    Wskazówka kucharza: Chilling the dough makes it less sticky and easier to handle.

  7. 7

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

    Około 5 min

  8. 8

    Place the coating sugar into a shallow bowl.

  9. 9

    Scoop the dough and roll it between your palms into balls about 1.5 inches in diameter.

    Około 5 min

    Wskazówka kucharza: A small cookie scoop can help make uniformly sized cookies.

  10. 10

    Roll each dough ball in the coating sugar until it's fully covered.

    Około 3 min

  11. 11

    Place the sugar-coated balls on the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches of space between them for spreading.

    Około 2 min

  12. 12

    Bake one sheet at a time for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are still soft.

    Około 12 min

    Wskazówka kucharza: For a chewier cookie, be careful not to overbake. They will firm up as they cool.

  13. 13

    Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
