yes
You don't really need a recipe, but you could try by just replacing caster sugar with molasses.
FAVORITE MOLASSES COOKIES
1/2 c. butter, softened
1/2 c. solid vegetable shortening, softened
1 1/2 c. sugar
1/2 c. unsulfured molasses
2 eggs lightly beaten
4 c. flour
1/2 tsp. salt
2 1/4 tsp. baking soda
2 1/4 tsp. ground ginger
1 1/2 tsp. ground cloves
1 1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
Granulated sugar for coating cookies
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cream butter, shortening, sugar in large bowl. Beat in molasses and eggs until thoroughly combined. Set aside. In another bowl, mix flour, salt, baking soda, ginger, cloves and cinnamon. Gradually stir the flour mixture into the butter mixture until blended and smooth. With sugar coated hands, roll pieces of dough into 1 1/2 inch balls. Roll the balls with additional sugar and place them about 2 1/2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake for 13 minutes. Cookies will flatten as they bake. Remove cookies from oven and immediately cool on wire racks.
Makes about 40 cookies.
Here's one for Tea Cakes (they're cookies)
Self rising flour
1 c. sugar
1 1/2 c. molasses
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1 c. Crisco or butter

Sift some self-rising flour in a large pan or bread tray like you are going to make biscuits by hand. Put all preceding ingredients in flour as if you were mixing biscuit dough. Knead until dough is not sticky. Roll on floured cloth or waxed paper, 1/4 inch thick; cut and place on oiled baking sheet. Bake at 350 until brown, about 20 minutes.
