Nonpareils are little silver balls for decorating I think!

I can't seem to find DARK molasses, only FANCY molasses.
Can I still use Fancy molasses for this recipe??
Thanks.

for EsterM- Non-pareils are decorative candies, sprinkles in any shapes.

This recipe gives wonderful results. The dough is very easy to work with and it tastes like authentic gingerbread. The cookie doesn't become very hard, rather, it is crispy on the outside and slightly tender on the inside. Very delicious!
