Ingredients
Scale
- ¾ cup + 1 and ½ Tablespoons (102g) all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon ground cardamom
- ¼ teaspoon ground ginger
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 6 Tablespoons (85g) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
- ½ cup (100g) firmly packed light brown sugar
- 2 Tablespoons (25g) granulated sugar

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350ºF (177ºC).
- Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat and set it aside.
- Whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, cardamom, ginger, and salt in a medium bowl. Set this aside for later use.
- Cream together the softened butter and both sugars in a large bowl using a handheld mixer or stand mixer with the paddle attachment until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
- Add the egg and beat on high until fully combined.
- Incorporate the vanilla and molasses, and beat on high once more, scraping the sides and bottom of the bowl as needed.
- Lower the mixer speed to low, and slowly add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
- Add the old-fashioned oats and white chocolate chips.
- Drop scoops of dough onto the prepared baking sheet using a cookie scoop.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are just set. Let them rest on the baking sheet for at least 10 minutes.
