Soft and Chewy Molasses Cookies

In a standing mixer with the paddle attachment, add 1 cup brown sugar, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, and 1 cup unsalted butter and mix on low speed until it is combined. Then whip on medium-high speed for 2+ minutes until lighter in color and fluffier in texture
Fold in 3 whole eggs & 1 teaspoon vanilla
Add in 3/4 cup unsulfured molasses and mix until combined
In a separate bowl, combine all the dry ingredients (4 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons soda, 1/2 fine sea salt, 2 teaspoons ground ginger, 2 teaspoons cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon cloves, 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg)
Turn the standing mixer on low speed and slowly pour in the dry ingredients. Mix just until the dough comes together. Do not over-mix the dough.
Cover mixer bowl and place dough in the fridge to rest for 3 hours
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees
Remove the dough from the fridge and scoop out large 1 1/2 tablespoon sized cookie dough balls. Roll each ball in granulated sugar until fully coated
Place on cookie sheets lined with parchment paper.
