Delicious and chewy, has a great slight hint of mint (I don't know why). With the sugar dusting, it has a great sparkle as well. One of my grandpa's favorite cookies! Ingredients:

1 1/4 cups sugar, divided |
1/4 cup molasses |

2 teaspoons baking soda |
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1 teaspoon ground ginger |
3/4 teaspoon ground cloves |
Directions:
1. In large mixing bowl, cream butter and 1 cup sugar.
2. Blend in molasses and egg.
3. Combine flour, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, and cloves; add to creamed mixture.
