Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup bacon drippings (from 1 1/2 to 2 pounds bacon), at room temperature
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar, plus more for the work surface
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup molasses (not blackstrap) or cane syrup
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
  • 2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 2 teaspoons ground ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Directions

  1. Mix all the ingredients together until a smooth, stiff dough forms. Wrap it tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least a few hours and up to 2 days.
  2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 baking with parchment paper. In a small bowl, pour about 1/4 cup sugar. Break off 1-Tbsp chunks of the cookie dough and roll them into balls. Then roll them around in the sugar to coat and place them on the baking sheets, 2 inches apart.
