Lassy Mogs are a traditional Scottish cookie that are similar to ginger snaps. They get their unique flavor from the combination of spices like cinnamon, clove and nutmeg. These cookies are a great alternative to traditional sugary treats, as they use natural sweeteners like molasses, dates and raisins. The addition of pecans not only adds some crunch and texture, but also some healthy fats and other important nutrients like fiber and antioxidants.

Instructions

1.Cream the butter and sugar together in a large bowl until light and fluffy.
2.Add the molasses and egg, and beat until well combined.
3.In a separate bowl, mix together the cinnamon, clove, nutmeg, salt, baking soda, baking powder and flour.
4.Add the dry ingredients slowly to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined.
5.Fold in the dates, raisins and pecans.
6.Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
7.Take about 1 tablespoon of the dough, roll it into a ball and place it on the baking sheet. Repeat until all dough has been used up.
8.Make an indentation in the center of each cookie, and bake for 10-12 minutes or until lightly browned.
9.Remove from the oven and let them cool completely before serving.
