Hermits

Ingredients

½ cup unsalted butter 113g, room temperature (1 stick)

1 cup granulated sugar 200g

⅓ cup unsulphured molasses 113g

2 large eggs 100g, room temperature

2½ cups all-purpose flour 300g

1 tsp baking powder 4g

½ tsp kosher salt

½ tsp ground cinnamon

¼ tsp ground nutmeg

⅛ tsp ground cloves

1 cup raisins 150g

1 cup powdered sugar for glaze

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F.

Use a hand mixer to cream the butter, sugar, and molasses together.

Beat in the eggs and vanilla extract.

In a separate bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves together.

Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients as you beat the mixture on low.

Mix in the raisins.

Divide the dough into 2 sections (about 494 grams each), and form each section into a log about 12 inches long.

Place the logs lengthwise on a large baking sheet. Then, flatten the logs to about ¾-inch thickness.

Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the logs are puffed up and have slight cracks in the middle.

Let cool before slicing into rectangles on the diagonal.

Description

These have lots of raisins and delicious spices.

Notes

I'm just a softie for a Hermit recipe. Compare with the other one that I posted to see which appeals to you. I liked the glaze on this one.
