Molasses Crinkle Cookies

Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Add the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, cardamom, and ¼ tsp salt to a large bowl. Mix well, making sure there are no clumps.

Add the melted butter, brown sugar, molasses, and vanilla extract to a separate large bowl. Whisk until combined. Stir the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

Add the turbinado sugar to a plate. Measure out 1 tbsp portions of cookie dough and roll into 24 balls. Roll in the sugar and gently press to flatten slightly. Add to the baking sheet and bake until the cookies are cracked, but still tender to the touch, about 10 to 12 minutes.
