Broas de Mel (Madeira island molasses cookies)

GET THE RECIPE: NOTE: in the video I say use a half a teaspoon of baking powder, that was an error. I should've said use a half a teaspoon of baking soda. The recipe will work with baking powder but baking soda is the preferable ingredient . 2-1/4 cups flour 6 oz butter, room temperature 1-1/4 cup sugar 1 egg 2 tbsp molasses ½ lemon, zested ½ tsp baking soda ½ tsp cinnamon ½ tsp ground nutmeg 1/4 tsp ground cloves 1/2 tsp salt Mix the sugar and soft butter in the bowl. About two minutes in an electric mixer or five minutes by hand. In a separate bowl mix all your dry ingredients flour, spices, lemon zest, salt, baking soda Now add all these dry ingredients to the bowl with the sugar and flour mixture. Add one egg and 2 tablespoons of molasses, then mix to combine all the ingredients. Scoop out a portion of about 1 tablespoon of cookie dough and roll into a ball - repeat. Place the cookie dough balls on a cookie sheet pan lined with parchment paper. Allow the dough balls to chill and refrigerator for about an hour . Preheat your oven to 350°F Remove the cookie sheet pans from the refrigerator and place immediately into a preheated 350°F oven. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes Just Cook With Michael Website: https://justcookwithmichael.com/ KITCHEN ITEMS: RELATED RECIPES: INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/justcookwithmichael FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/justcookwithmichael PINTEREST: https://www.pinterest.com/justcookwithmichael/ PHOTOGRAPHY EQUIPMENT: Canon EOS 6D: https://amzn.to/2WL9tQ9 Canon EF 40mm f/2.8 STM Lens- Fixed: https://amzn.to/3hnxwMP Canon EF 70-300mm f/4.5-6 is II USM Lens: https://amzn.to/3fSesWv Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 STM Lens: https://amzn.to/2ZUXktX Andoer Colorful Metal Electronic TTL Auto Focus Focus AF Macro Extension Tube Ring for Canon EOS EF EF-S 60D 7D 5D II 550D Red: https://amzn.to/2ZPvQpc ________________________________________________________________________ JustCookWithMichael is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com.
