Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter softened
- 1/3 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup molasses
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, ginger, cinnamon, cloves, baking soda, and salt.
- In a separate large bowl, cream together the softened butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add the molasses and vanilla extract to the butter mixture and mix until well combined.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a dough forms. If desired, fold in the chocolate chips or chopped chocolate.
