Soft, easy molasses cookies. Great for kids to help make! Ingredients:
3/4 cup shortening |
1 cup packed brown sugar |
1 egg |
1/2 cup light molasses |
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour |
1 teaspoon salt |
2 teaspoons baking soda |
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves |
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1 teaspoon ground ginger |
Directions:
1. Cream together shortening and brown sugar. Stir in egg and molasses and mix well. Fold in dry ingredients and stir. Cover and chill until firm (1 - 2 hours).
2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
3. Roll dough into small balls (I use a small melon baller to help with this) and roll in white sugar. Place on lightly greased cookie sheets.
4. Bake 9 - 10 minutes. Leave on cookie sheet one minute until set.
