Ingredients:

Serving

1 cup shortening
2 eggs
2 tsp baking soda
1 cup brewed coffee
1 cup molasses
1 tbsp distilled white vinegar
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp ground ginger
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
1/2 tsp ground cloves
4 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups confectioners' sugar
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
5 tbsp water as needed
2 cups white sugar

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Dissolve the baking soda in the coffee.
Cream the shortening with the white sugar. Beat in the eggs, coffee mixture, molasses, vinegar, 1/2 cup of the cocoa powder, spices, and flour. Dough should be thick and slightly sticky. Drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto a greased cookie sheet.
Bake for 10 to 12 minutes. Let cookies cool, then glaze.
To Make Glaze: Combine the confectioner's sugar, 1/4 cup cocoa, and enough water to achieve a desired spreading consistency. Beat until smooth.
