Directions:
Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 375 degrees. Line baking sheet with parchment paper. Place ¼ cup sugar for rolling in small bowl.

Whisk flour, cinnamon, ginger, baking soda, cloves, allspice, salt, and pepper in medium bowl until thoroughly combined. Combine brown sugar and remaining ¼ cup granulated sugar in second medium bowl. Add butter and whisk until smooth.

Add molasses, egg yolk, and vanilla and whisk until smooth. Add flour mixture and stir with rubber spatula until completely incorporated. Using tablespoon measure, scoop heaping tablespoon of dough and roll between your palms into 1½-inch ball. Roll in sugar to coat and place on prepared baking sheet. Repeat with remaining
dough, spacing dough balls about 2 inches apart. Bake until cookies are browned, still puffy, and edges have begun to set but centers are still soft (cookies will look raw between cracks and seem underdone), 9 to 11 minutes, rotating baking sheet
halfway through baking.

Let cookies cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes. Use wide metal spatula to transfer cookies to wire rack. Let cookies cool completely before serving.
