This recipe originally came from my grandmother but I have altered it a bit to add my favorite: chocolate chips. They are not a traditional molasses cookie so even people who don't enjoy molasses like these cookies.Mellowdee Jae Brooks, Moscow, Idaho Ingredients:
1 cup shortening |
1-1/2 cups sugar |
1/2 cup molasses |
2 eggs |
3 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
1-1/2 teaspoons baking soda |
1 teaspoon salt |
2 cups (12 ounces) semisweet chocolate chips |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, beat the shortening, sugar and molasses. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Combine the flour, baking soda and salt; gradually add to creamed mixture. Stir in chocolate chips. 2. Roll into 1-in. balls. Place 2 in. apart on ungreased baking sheets. Bake at 375° for 8-10 minutes or until edges are firm. Remove to wire racks. Yield: 7-1/2 dozen. |
