Molasses Cookies

[@luciamary5641]

I buy my molasses from the sugar factory here in Barbados. I love it. One teaspoon in hot water taste like coffee and it is good for anemia ( in my personal experience).

[@swagsarang7381]

I have anaemia. It has not got better for over 1 year. Thanks for the tips I will try it

[@nix6343]

@@swagsarang7381 did it help??

[@alkggkla5643]

Molasses is an excellent source of iron! Vegans sometimes use it for that very reason

[@markwpatterson]

I just made these. Wow! Maybe the best cookie I've ever tried to make. I grew up in 'The South'...so there was always a jar of molasses on the table when buttermilk biscuits & melted butter were served. So I LOVE the taste of even a spoon full of just plain, ole molasses! I didn't have any ground ginger but I did have some beautiful candied ginger & I chopped about a half a cup & added to the mix. And I can NEVER have too many warm spices so I added allspice, nutmeg & cloves. I always loved lemon &/or orange sauce over warm gingerbread so I added some fresh (I have loads of citrus in the garden!) blood orange & Eureka lemon zest to the mix. WOW! THANK YOU for all the recipes. Anything I try from you turns out SO good. Cheers

I have taken 1tbs of blackstrap molasses every morning right from the spoon for the past 11yrs. Has helped my iron stores tremendously!

[@mntervuren3753]

Molasses dribbled on a slice of warm-from-the-oven freshly baked whole wheat bread... Yum

[@adonian]

Try it in French toast 🤤

[@brieannastauffer3343]

I love the taste of molasses, even blackstrap, it’s an old school taste but if you can get past the bitterness it’s a really complex sweetener

[@GeraldineOBryan]

Heat your molasses on the stove and add a pinch or two of soda and stir and take off burner.

[@tomwyant9297]

You're obviously not southern. LOL!!! We love a hot biscuit slathered with sweet butter and covered with molasses. Good ol' Blackstrap Molasses! And, yes, we think it's very "tasty". I've been making these cookies for over 30 years. They are our favorite Christmas cookie. In fact, we call them "The Christmas Cookie". I make the cookie dough, roll it into balls, coat it with sugar, and freeze on parchment paper lined cookie sheets. I store the frozen dough balls in Ziploc bags so we can bake a few at a time as we want them. I have six dozen dough balls in the freezer right now that I made three nights ago. They don't last long so I make a double batch each time. They are good anytime, but they are especially good at Christmas. As a matter of fact, I think I'll go take a few out of the freezer right now and bake them for us to have as an afternoon snack with a glass of milk. Try a good hot homemade biscuit with some butter and molasses. You can thank me later.

[@janniefunster1]

I like butter and molasses spread on thick slices of fresh-made bread. Yes!!!

[@laceyb3729]

Ok but can we talk about johns apron?! Adorable!! Love that you’re switching it up for the holidays 🥰

[@taylorwoodford4728]

I grew up eating molasses on my cornbread in Tennessee, still one of my favorite treats to this day! Molasses is one of my favorite flavors!

[@peshgirl]

Did you see Binging with Babish used your recipe for macarons on his episode today? Here's hoping you get all the clicks you deserve!

[@Mashariki_0]

I was elated to see that shout out

[@AkselTheBookWizard]

I saw that too and honestly 'whooped' a little. This guy is so underrated. He's easily got the most user friendly videos. I've made about six of his recipes in the last few weeks because everything is so clearly explained.

[@vanvan1018]

I was just thinking about that!!! So great

[@rudabanasir6796]

I was about to comment the same thing!

[@rebeccasunflower]

I went straight to the comments section here because of the Babish shoutout!!

[@barbiek3987]

Canada here. I use Cosby's Molasses. They have many recipes for using molasses. My husband loves carrot sticks sauteed with molasses and butter. So many recipes to use molasses. Yummm Oh btw, love the recipe for soft gingersnaps.

[@lindajohnson1035]

Thanks for the carrot stick idea.

[@sherleescott]

Love molasses! I grew up in Nova Scotia where the molasses jug was always on the table. After a meal a fresh slice of homemade bread topped with Molasses was the Norm... Molasses cookies regardless of time of the year were a staple in the pantry. It is so healthy source of iron, selenium, copper and calcium all good for bone health . 1 Tbsp.Blackstrap molasses contains 20% of the iron you each day. Yes and as stated below good for anemia...( personal experience as well)

[@rebeccabourque7704]

I’m not a very big cookie fan, however I LOVE molasses cookies. I haven’t made them for awhile but this video made me add them to my baking list for this year.

[@marcygidlof6581]

We made these and added chopped candied ginger. Soooo yummy!

[@katyamonarski4695]

Just made these cookies for the second time and they are out of this world! My boyfriend was obsessed, he says they’re his favorite thing I’ve ever made 😍 thanks so much John for this amazing, really quite easy recipe

[@meilune6357]

Me: :( Preppy Kitchen: *new video* Me: :)

[@angelballerina4056]

Also me 🙋‍♀️

[@valeriebrown4769]

Hi John we love these cookies so much. The only thing I always add is some chopped crystallized ginger. Adds to the flavor and chewiness. I love you and your channel. Many thanks for always making me smile. 😊🙋‍♀️🇨🇦

[@nouranahhas7212]

In the middle east countries, we eat molasses with tahini, its delicious😋😋

[@alaaalmetwally7019]

Dates molasses not the one he’s using in this recipe, but if you’re talking about dates molasses with tahini it’s so good, specially the Iraqi dates molasses

[@PuppyBiteforTrump]

They sell here in western Washington state in the vegan restaurants.

[@cherylcheng7863]

I love molasses and really enjoy any recipe that uses it.

[@salc9593]

Molasses is a byproduct of the sugar-making process, and it comes from crushed sugar cane or sugar beets. First, manufacturers crush sugar cane or sugar beets to extract the juice. They then boil down the juice to form sugar crystals.

[@_ideahistory]

Every time we try one of your recipes, they turn out so perfect! Keep ‘em coming!

[@bridramirez6760]

Whenever I try a new recipe I always will use yours if possible. I had molasses sitting in my pantry and felt inspired to use it today. These cookies truly taste like Christmas and I'm excited to make them again for my family during the holidays

[@gloriaviktorija]

your mood makes me feel so cosy and happy!

[@shariekahwooten3151]

I always have molasses in my cabinet..I do enjoy the taste of it with some homemade buttermilk biscuits...it may be a southern thing

[@lillychambers-go4qz]

I'm so excited to be here when the post is FRESH! I finally got a stand mixed and I made your pastry cream recipe and your Italian meringue. I LOVE your recipes. 🥰

[@mgt4life575]

Molasses are good for you. My husband and I take a teaspoonful every morning. I will definitely give this a try. Thanks for sharing!

[@samanthab3292]

It's just sugar lol

[@Fatima-sv5ym]

It’s not honey 🤔

[@jenniegust9982]

Many health benefits and good for cannabis plants too!

[@fayedalton8810]

I am from the south and we made molasses, so I grew up eating them. My Mom would make fresh biscuits and we would poor the molasses over the hot biscuit with butter. Love it. Thanks good recipe.

[@marwacrazycakes4140]

I used to have 2 spoonful of molasses in the morning daily when I was a kid and I love it, it’s great for people low on iron or anemic

[@Mashariki_0]

I'm loving the apron, super cute.

[@SamArChir]

I love molasses. Molasses and butter on biscuits is amazing.

[@missidoleyes]

Mix molasses with tahini. Yummm. Healthy alternative to Nutella.

Molasses is delicious. I put it in my coffee. It is AMAZING!

[@cousinjesse4450]

Amazing recipe thanks for sharing. This is the true flavor of the holidays.

[@pennysilvey8868]

I absolutely love the taste of molasses. I can eat it with a spoon. When I was a kid, and still do occasionally, I mixed softened butter with it, and put it on warm biscuits. There’s nothing like it. I like it as well as I like honey.

[@danielm872]

I love that apron!

[@peterdelfino140]

I used the same recipe with gluten free and it turned out awesome! Thanks so much, I really enjoy your channel

[@galeem713]

One of my fav breakfasts was a slice of bread slathered with molasses and put in the oven for a bit. When they come out, you put butter on it and then eat. My molasses cookies are different and people love them.

[@ChuumiChan]

I see PreppyKitchen I click 😍❤ hands down favourite cooking/baking channel. John is like joy personified in his videos, honestly makes me want to bake everything that he makes 🧡

[@Rsc576]

Nice recipe! Great creaming method! Very pretty cookie!

[@stonechops]

Hi John, the other day I made brown sugar! It was incredible! I twirled around, showed off the silky texture to anyone near me...it was all because of you! I’m still amazed.

[@Shamonwhitehurst252]

My mother is from Boston and molasses is a way of life up there! I love Molasses everything from Pie to Mary Jane Candies

[@PyrMom01]

These are A-MAZING! Great texture, super rich molasses flavor. The sugar on top is a nice finishing touch. Thank you for this new favorite

[@JessyJ318]

Archway in the 90s made molasses cookies so good! They were soft, chewy and would stick to the paper. They literally don’t make them the same now they’re coated with sugar and even the soft version is hard relative to the previous version….💔💔💔

[@uzumaki_edits9713]

I watched you at school today! And I wanted to watch you again. We or my class are making molasses cookies! From your videos!

[@mmakomanyatja5213]

Thank you John

[@cgirl905]

[@ML-xh6rd]

I was thinking these cookies would be so good with a nice cup of tea. Glad that know my thoughts were on track.

[@DrBrunoRecipes]

Amazing recipe 😍 Greetings from Scotland ♥️

[@princessconsuelabananahamm1571]

Sweet! Thanks for the recipe! Looks amazing really. 💕

[@alkggkla5643]

I love molasses on good dark bread toast, like dark rye. Folks in the south sometimes put it on biscuits, pancakes, cornbread, or toast

[@kthompson214]

Thank for this easy recipe

[@ylapointe7414]

Love the molasses cookies. A hit among family and friends in Quebec. Easy and impressive. I really enjoy your recipes and the clarity of your explanations. And yes, I eat spoonful of molasse occasionally.

[@lindahorton9488]

When I was a toddler growing up in Texas my grandma would make buttermilk biscuits from scratch every morning and we’d drizzle molasses on them... YUMMMMM!
