Directions:
- Place the shortening and sugar into a mixing bowl and rub or beat with a spoon until the mixture is light and fluffy.
- Add the egg and the molasses and beat well.
- Sift flour before measuring, then sift again with the dry ingredients so that they are mixing well.
- Add the flour mixture to the shortening mixture and mix well.
- Refrigerate the dough for at least 1 hour.
- Preheat the oven to 375°F.
- Shape the dough into 1-inch balls.
- Roll each ball in granulated sugar.
- Place the balls 2-inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet.
- Bake the cookies at 375° for 8-10 minutes or until lightly browned.
- Remove from the oven and allow them to cool slightly (about 2 minutes).
- Remove from the cookie sheet to wire racks to cool completely.
