MOLASSES COOKIES WITH MOLASSES FROSTING
The cookie recipe I found on the Tasty Kitchen site posted by seelanye. The only change to them was I used a full cup of butter instead of 1/2 cup shortening, 1/2 cup butter. The frosting/dipping sauce however is all mine. I hope you enjoy. I do suggest you double the sauce recipe so you will have some to pour over your vanilla ice cream.

Steps:
- In a large bowl cream butter and sugar together.
- Add molasses and eggs. Blend together completely.
- In a smaller bowl combine all remaining ingredients except the sugar for rolling. stir to mix.
- Add the flour mixture a little at a time, starting on low and increasing the speed on your mixer as needed. The dough will be thick.
- Take a small spoon and scoop out a portion and roll into a ball. Roll the ball in the sugar and place on a cookie sheet, smashing slightly with your palm.
- When you have placed 9 cookies on the sheet transfer to the oven. They will spread out so only cook 9 at a time.
- Bake at 350F for 10 minutes. Let cool on sheet for 2 min. then transfer to a cookie rack to cool completely.
- I like them still warm, they are nice and soft. They will harden as they cool, but then they are perfect for dipping in your coffee or tea. It is an amazing afternoon snack or for when you get home form work!
- Now for the Frosting/Dipping Sauce.
- Melt butter in a medium sauce pan on medium heat. Continue to stir and cook until it foams up and starts to turn a golden color.
- Add brown sugar and sourcream, whisking to combine completely.
- Cook for 5 minutes.
- Remove from the heat, add vanilla and molasses. Whisk to completely combine. Let sit 2 min.
- Ok now you have a choice, either you can wait till it cools completely and use it as a frosting, or you can serve it right away as a dipping sauce or on top of ice cream.

FROSTED MOLASSES COOKIES
This recipe was one I picked up in gourmet class in college. It was my teacher's grandmother's recipe and she made us a batch while we prepared our own cookie recipes. They were SO good and when she spoke of making them with her grandmother, you could tell that those memories were very special to her. Make them a part of your cookie jar stock!

Yield 12 cookie sandwiches
Number Of Ingredients 15
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
- For the molasses cookies: Put the brown sugar, butter and vegetable shortening in a large bowl and beat with a hand mixer on medium speed until combined. Add the flour, molasses, eggs, cinnamon, ginger and baking soda and beat until combined.
- Use a tablespoon to scoop the dough onto the baking sheets. Make sure there is ample space between each dough ball as the cookies will spread.
- Bake until puffed on top, 10 to 12 minutes. Cool the cookies on the baking sheet on a rack for 5 minutes, then transfer the cookies to the rack to cool completely before frosting.
- For the boiled frosting: Combine the granulated sugar, 3/4 cup water, cream of tartar and a pinch of salt in a medium heavy-bottomed pot, bring to a boil over medium heat and cook until a candy thermometer registers 245 degrees, about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and fold in the marshmallows until melted.
- Put the egg whites in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment and whip on medium-high speed into stiff peaks. Turn the mixer to low and slowly pour the hot sugar mixture into the egg whites. Beat on medium speed until cool and fluffy, then fold in the vanilla extract.
- Using a butter knife, frost the bottoms of half the cookies, top them with the remaining cookies, and serve.
