This is one of my favorite cookie recipes - making these treats seems to put me in a holiday mood. Maybe it's the soft centers, or perhaps the spicy aroma of ginger and cloves. Whatever the case, a few Molasses Creams and a glass of milk or cup of warm tea always hit the spot!

I had lots of problems with this recipe. The cookies didn't rise at all and spread out very wide and very flat. As a result they were rather difficult to remove from the ungreased cookie sheet. Since there is no baking powder in the recipe I'm wondering if my baking soda had been around too long and had lost its potency. The cookies still tasted good but they were more like a softer version of a gingersnap than I expected. Does anyone have any ideas about what went wrong?
