Ingredients:

3/4 cup all purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 cup candied ginger

1/2 cup dark brown sugar

1 large egg

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon ground cloves

1/2 teaspoon ground ginger

1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

1/4 cup molasses (not black strap)

1/2 cup raisins

1/2 cup unsalted butter, room temperature

3/4 cup white sugar

3/4 cup white whole wheat flour

Equipment:

baking paper

hand mixer

baking sheet

bowl

oven

food processor

Cooking instruction summary:

Preheat the oven to 350 and line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or silpat liner.In the bowl of an electric mixer add butter and sugar. Blend on medium speed until well combined and fluffy. Add in molasses and egg, beat to combine. In the bowl of a food processor add white whole wheat flour, all purpose flour, raisins, candied ginger, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, ginger and cloves. Processes until the raisins and candied gingers are slightly minced. While the mixer is running on low speed slowly add in flour/raisin/ginger mixture to the butter/molasses mixture. Raise the speed to medium on the mixer and mix until combined. The dough will be sticky but roll the dough into 2 inch balls and roll into white sugar. Place onto the baking sheet and slightly flatten (just pushing down the top of the ball) to insure even sized (and round) cookies. I like to bake 6 cookies per baking sheet. This leaves enough room for spreading and no touching.Add cookies to the prepared baking sheet and bake for about 9-11 minutes. You want the cookies to be a little soft when pulling them out of the oven so when they cool they are still soft.Let cookies cool on the baking sheet. Continue baking until all the dough has been used.

The earliest form of eating processed food occurred in early hunting cultures when the men who made a kill would be rewarded with a meal of the partially digested contents of the stomach of their prey.
