Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 350°.
  2. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together first 7 ingredients (through salt); set aside.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, beat brown sugar and oil with an electric mixer on medium speed for 5 min.
  4. Add egg and yolk; beat until just combined.
  5. Add molasses; beat until well combined.
  6. Add dry ingredients; beat on low speed just until flour is no longer visible, scraping bowl as needed.
  7. Add candied ginger; mix by hand until combined.
  8. Using your hands, roll 30 evenly sized balls (about 1"); press to flatten slightly.
  9. Press both sides of each cookie into white sugar; place 2" apart on 2 parchment-lined baking sheets.
  10. Bake in preheated oven until just barely set and cookies appear slightly underbaked in the cracks (8-9 min.), rotating and turning pans halfway through.
  11. Remove from oven; let cookies rest on pans for 1-2 min., then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
  12. Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.
