Cooking instruction summary:

Preheat Oven Temperature to 350 degrees F Prepare 3 half sheet baking pans lined with parchment paper, set aside. In a small shallow bowl add cane sugar for rolling. In a small bowl, whisk to combine flour, spices, baking soda, set aside. In a stand mixer with a paddle attachment or a bowl using a hand mixer, combine dark brown sugar, coconut oil, molasses, and applesauce. Set on low speed at first to avoid splatter then up to medium speed for 2 minutes, or until fully incorporated. Add the flour mixture slowly, only a third of the mixture at a time to ensure proper blend of ingredients. Lay out a piece of wax paper or parchment paper, about 1 foot wide to put the rolled cookies before coating with sugar. Roll into 1 inch balls with light pressure, like a meatball. When all have been made into balls transfer to the bowl with sugar (as many as you can fit at a time) then lightly cover with sugar. Make sure to get all sides. Repeat until all cookie dough has been shaped. Place sugared cookie dough onto baking sheets. Press down gently just to dent the top a bit. Bake for 9-11 minutes. Let cool on the baking sheets for 15 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack to cool completely. Can be stored in the refrigerator for a week, or frozen for a month in an airtight container.

Food Joke

A woman announces to her friend that she is getting married for the fourth time. "How wonderful! But I hope you don't mind me asking what happened to your first husband?" "He ate poisonous mushrooms and died." "Oh, how tragic! What about your second husband?" "He ate poisonous mushrooms too and died." "Oh, how terrible! I'm almost afraid to ask you about your third husband." "He died of a broken neck." "A broken neck?" "He wouldn't eat the mushrooms."
