Beat the butter and sugars in a bowl with electric mixer until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time and beat until just combined, about 30 seconds each. Add the molasses and beat until incorporated, about 30 seconds. Add the dry ingredients in 3 batches, mixing each on low speed until almost incorporated before adding the next, and scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.

Using a rubber spatula, form the dough on a baking sheet into 2 logs about 2x14in and about 6 inches apart, as they will spread a lot as they bake. You can smooth the logs using moistened fingers. Bake until they feel set, are golden brown and cracked on top: about 20 minutes. Cool on a rack and cut on a diagonal into slices about 1 1/4 inches thick.
