Bacon Fat Spice Cookies
Makes 20 to 24 cookies (made 22 for me)
Flour - 1 ¼ cups
Sugar – ¼ cup plus 1 Tablespoon
Brown Sugar - ¼ cup
Sea Salt – 1 teaspoon
Cinnamon (ground) – ¾ teaspoon
Ginger (ground) – ¾ teaspoon
Cloves (ground) – ¾ teaspoon
Bacon Fat – ½ cup
Molasses – 2 Tablespoons
Egg – 1
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line 2 Large baking sheets with parchment paper.
2. Combine the flour, sugar, the salt, and the spices in a food processor and pulse to mix. Add the bacon fat, molasses, and egg and pulse until the mixture forms soft dough.
3. Take level tablespoons of the dough and roll them into balls. Place the balls on the prepared baking sheets about 2 inches / 5 cm apart. Using a fork, flatten the balls slightly, and sprinkle with the tablespoon of sugar.
4. Bake the cookies until they are beginning to brown around the edges, 10-12 minutes. Let the cookies cool slightly on the baking sheets and then transfer to a wire rack.
Store the cookies in an airtight container for up to a week.
