Prepare the chai sugar by whisking together white and brown sugars, cinnamon, ginger, cardamom, cloves, nutmeg, and black pepper to a medium bowl.

In a separate large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, ginger, cinnamon, cloves, and cardamom.

To the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat butter, white sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.

Add egg, molasses, and vanilla to the bowl with the butter and sugar and mix until combined.

Add the flour mixture, about a cup at a time, to the bowl with the butter mixture and mix on medium after each addition to combine.

Chill the dough then scoop out balls of dough into your palm using a cookie scoop, and use both hands to form them into round balls.

Roll each dough ball into the chai sugar, coating all sides, then transfer cookies to the prepared baking sheet, spacing them an inch or more apart.
