-  * I usually put in 1/2 c. of molasses when I made these I was running out of molasses so only put in a 1/4 cup. They are a little lighter in color as a result but it didn't otherwise seem to make much of a difference.+  * I usually put in 1/2 c. of molasses when I made these I was running out of molasses so only put in a 1/4 cup. They are a little lighter in color as a result but it didn't otherwise seem to make much of a difference. [2026 edit: I forgot to read this note before mixing the batter, and so only put in 1/4 c. of molasses again, even though I was not short of molasses this year. As I said last year, they are fine like this, but I prefer them a bit darker so would advise adding the full 1/2 c. for the future] 
   * I have added a bit of powdered ginger to the sugar mixture that I roll the balls in, but decided I couldn't be bothered this year. They are plenty gingery without that extra touch.   * I have added a bit of powdered ginger to the sugar mixture that I roll the balls in, but decided I couldn't be bothered this year.
