I can\u2019t wait for you guys to try them. They really are easy to make. Just make sure to give yourself two hours of chill time. Trust me, you will be happy you did! Make these for your next cookie exchange party, everyone will love them!<\/p>\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list is-style-fancy\">\n<li><strong>Beat:<\/strong> Add the butter, sugar, and brown sugar to a large mixing bowl and beat with a hand mixer or stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Mix:<\/strong> Add the molasses and mix until combined.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Whisk<\/strong>: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, ginger, cinnamon, and cloves.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Chill<\/strong>: Add the flour mixture to the butter mixture and mix on medium speed until fully combined before mixing in the milk and vanilla extract. Split the dough into two discs and wrap them in plastic wrap. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Coat:<\/strong> After the dough chills, preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit and then line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. <span style=\"background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);\">Scoop the dough into 1 \u00bd inch balls and then <\/span>roll them in the granulated sugar. Then, roll them in the powdered sugar and place them on the prepared baking sheets, leaving 2 inches between them.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Bake<\/strong>: Bake for 10-13 minutes. The centers of the cookies will still look gooey and underbaked, which is just fine! Let the cookies rest on the baking sheet for 2-3 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack to finish cooling.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-2 is-cropped is-style-numbered wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" data-id=\"276848\" alt=\"Overhead shot of butter and sugars in a bowl. \" class=\"wp-image-276848\" title=\"These gingerbread crinkle cookies are incredibly soft and flavorful!

You can have fun making them with your kids. Have them help you roll the dough balls in the sugars! Here are a few tips to make sure they turn out perfectly flavorful and crinkly!<\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Measuring Flour:\u00a0<\/strong>Using too much flour is a common baking mistake and will leave your baked goods dry and crumbly. Whisk the flour, then spoon it into a dry measuring cup and level off the top. Don\u2019t shake the measuring cup.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Chilling the Dough:<\/strong>\u00a0It\u2019s important to chill the gingerbread crinkle cookie dough for at least 2 hours. This will not only maximize the delicious flavors, but it also prevents spreading.  It will also make the dough less sticky when you roll it.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Plenty of Powdered Sugar:<\/strong>\u00a0Roll the cookies into the powdered sugar, generously. This will ensure a pretty white layer among the cracks and crinkles.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Coating Tips:<\/strong>\u00a0I like to shape all the dough into balls before rolling each one in sugar. This way your hands are not covered in powdered sugar while trying to shape the next dough ball.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Molasses<\/strong>: <span style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;\">For this recipe, use\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.target.com\/p\/molasses-9oz-good-38-gather-8482\/-\/A-87716454#lnk=sametab\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">unsulphured molasses<\/a><\/span>. Blackstrap molasses is too strong and bitter and will overpower the spices in the cookies.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><!-- .block-quick-tips__inner --><\/div>\n<p> <!-- .block-quick-tips --><\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1799\" alt=\"Overhead shot of gingerbread crinkle cookies on a cooling rack over a baking sheet. \" class=\"wp-image-276264\" title=\"These gingerbread crinkle cookies are incredibly soft and flavorful!
