Molasses Spice Cookie Recipe - Lassy Mogs An East Coast Favourite!

Welcome back to the kitchen, friends! Today on Glen And Friends Cooking, we're making a delicious East Coast favourite - Lassy Mogs! I'm excited to share this recipe as I prepare for my upcoming trip to the East Coast of Canada to support Hope Air, a wonderful charity that helps people in underserved parts of Canada access healthcare. Thanks to your incredible generosity, we've already raised over $23,000 this year!

In this video, we'll go through each step of making these soft, spiced molasses cookies that are perfect for snacking on long flights. Plus, we'll talk a bit about the history of this traditional treat.

Make sure to check out the links below for more information about Hope Air and to follow our journey as we head to a Flyin fundraiser. And for the taste test, join us at The Hanger Channel where Julie and I will enjoy these cookies in the air. Thank you so much for your support and for joining us in making a difference!

Ingredients:
250 mL (1 cup) butter
375 mL (1 ½ cups) brown sugar
Pinch salt
2 eggs
7 mL (1 ½ tsp) vanilla
60 mL (¼ cup) molasses
500 mL (2 cups) flour
2 mL (½ tsp) baking powder
2 mL (½ tsp) baking soda
2 mL (½ tsp) ground cinnamon
1 mL (¼ tsp) ground mace
1 mL (¼ tsp) ground cloves
1 mL (¼ tsp) ground allspice
250 mL (1 cup) rolled oats
250 mL (1 cup) raisins
250 mL (1 cup) pecans, chopped

Method:
Cream together the butter, brown sugar, and salt until light and fluffy.
Beat in the two eggs, one at a time.
Beat in the vanilla, and molasses.
In a small bowl mix together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon,mace, cloves, and allspice.
Mix the oats into the butter sugar mixture, and then mix in the flour mixture.
Stir in the nuts and raisins.

The dough will be very loose, it can benefit from an hour in the fridge before baking.
Preheat oven to 350ºF (180ºC).
Scoop out the dough using a tablespoon or #50 scoop onto a baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes.

I will once again be flying in the Give Hope Wings fundraiser this year! Our June of 2024 flight will see us stop in many communities in Eastern Canada to raise awareness for this worthy cause.
Last year 2023 we raised over $27,000 towards helping our neighbours - we made a positive difference in the lives of many.
