If you live in Canada you may be familiar with President’s Choice Lassy Mog cookies. It is claimed that these cookies originated in Newfoundland, Canada. I hope you enjoy them as much as my friends and family do.
Ingredients
- 1 cup butter
- 1 cup brown sugar
- ½ cup water
- 1 cup molasses
- 1 teaspoon ground allspice
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon ground cloves
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 ¾ cups raisins
- 1 ¾ cups dates, pitted and chopped
- 2 cups pecans, chopped
- 1 ½ cups chopped candied fruit
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 3 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
Directions
Step 1
Combine the butter, brown sugar, water, molasses, allspice, cinnamon, cloves, ginger, and black pepper in a saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, then remove from the heat, and allow to cool. Once warm to the touch, stir in the vanilla extract, and pour into a mixing bowl. Cover, and let stand at room temperature at least 8 hours.
Step 2
Stir in the raisins, dates, pecans, and candied fruit. Whisk together the salt, baking soda, and flour; stir into the fruit mixture until no dry lumps remain. Refrigerate 3 to 4 hours until firm.
Step 3
Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Step 4
Form the mixture into golf ball-sized balls. Place onto ungreased baking sheets 1 1/2-inches apart, and flatten with your palm to 1/4-inch thick. Bake in the preheated oven until the edges are golden, 8 to 10 minutes. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 1 minute before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
