The Flood

A Molasses Cookie Worth Getting Swept Up In

Our spiced molasses cookie brings big Boston energy with every bite—no history textbook required. Inspired by the Great Molasses Flood of 1919, this chewy classic is packed with warm, nostalgic flavor.

We start with a rich, sticky dough made from molasses, butter, and sugar, blend in cage-free eggs, and stir in King Arthur Flour, leaveners, and a pinch of salt to balance it all out. Then we add cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, and ginger for a cozy, aromatic finish.

Each ½ dozen stack comes hand-scooped and baked to chewy perfection. Whether you’re a spice lover, a molasses fan, or just want a cookie with a wild backstory, this one delivers.
