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

John invited his mother over for dinner. During the meal, his mother couldn't help noticing how attractive and shapely the housekeeper was. Over the course of the evening, she started to wonder if there was more between John and the housekeeper than met the eye. Reading his mom's thoughts, John volunteered, "I know what you must be thinking, but I assure you, my relationship with my housekeeper is purely professional." About a week later, the housekeeper came to John and said, "Ever since your mother came to dinner, I've been unable to find the beautiful silver gravy ladle. You don't suppose she took it, do you?" John said, "Well, I doubt it, but I'll write her a letter just to be sure." So he sat down and wrote: "Dear Mother, I'm not saying you 'did' take a gravy ladle from my house, and I'm not saying you 'did not' take a gravy ladle. But the fact remains that one has been missing ever since you were here for dinner." Several days later, John received a letter from his mother which said "Dear Son, I'm not saying that you 'do' sleep with your housekeeper, and I'm not saying that you 'do not' sleep with your housekeeper. But the fact remains that if she were sleeping in her own bed, she would have found the gravy ladle by now. Love, Mom"
