Hi! I've looked through a few cookie recipes here but it's hard to know what the texture of the final product is without making a whole bunch of recipes. I'm looking for a soft and chewy texture similar to the Lofthouse cookies that you can buy in the store (plastic boxes of a dozen or so). I don't want a cake-like soft texture nor a crispy cookie (not like a gingersnap). Does anyone have a recipe they have tried that would fit the bill? I'd love to make some this afternoon. Thanks!

When you say black molasses, is that blackstrap molasses?
