I played with this recipe to make it a normal GLUTEN cookie. I have a hankerin for those classic molasses cocoa cookies that come in a red bag/box, but are IMPOSSIBLE to find, especially where I live. To make a normal GLUTEN cookie I did the following: same amount of flour, just all purpose flour. NO Xanthum gum. I left out the clove. Halved the amount of salt, added one egg PLUS one yolk, and half the amount of molasses. Everything else is the same. I chilled the dough for two hours and used a cookie scoop to make balls. I rolled the balls is white sugar and lightly smashed them with the bottom of a glass (about half inch thick), then baked at 350' for 12 min. The cookies MUST cool to set. :) Wow! Thanks for sharing this! I love that you came up with a way to make them with regular flour. Thanks for sharing! -Kim@KAF
