    Sound delicious, I love eating cookies, that is my problem as I tend to eat lots of them, of the non-healthy cookies so now I have changed my mind and I opted to prepare my own healthy cookies and the molasses is a good option to leave behind the refined sugar

    I love cooking with molasses, not only because it’s a natural product and is so rarely used, but it is realliy like this hidden gem among the baking world, and it gives everything such a warm, homey taste to it, I just love the way molasses bakes up.
