The last batch of this molasses wonderment is cooling on the rack at this very moment. These cookies are perfection just as the recipe is written. I did not (and would not) change a thing! When forming balls, I simply dropped a spoonful of dough into the sugar and rolled them around in the bowl with another spoon. The dough is very sticky. They do not have to be formed into a perfect ball. I would not press them out at all, but be sure to allow plenty of room between cookies. They do spread and flatten considerably, forming a perfectly round cookie. These could not be any easier!

My 7 year old daughter and I made these cookies for Santa today. They are delicious! All three of my children were snatching them off the cooling rack before they hit the platter! They are soft and flavorful. I followed the recipe as is. I dropped them by the spoonful, and they turned out beautifully. I'm certain Santa will love them!

I did not like this recipe at all. I made it exactly as stated. The gooey brown sugary crumb topping all settled in the center of the muffin and was far too sweet for me.
