There's nothing really fancy about these cookies, but they're my husband's all-time favorite. He enjoys their chewy, comforting flavor and the childhood memories they bring back. Ingredients:
1 cup sugar |
3/4 cup vegetable oil |
1/4 cup molasses |
1 egg |
2 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
2 teaspoons baking soda |
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger |
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves |
additional sugar |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the oil, sugar and molasses. Add egg; mix well. Combine the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, salt, cloves and ginger; add to sugar mixture and mix well. Cover and refrigerate for 4 hours or until easy to handle.
2. Shape dough into 1-in. balls; roll in additional sugar. Place 3 in. apart on greased baking sheets. Bake at 375° for 7-9 minutes or until tops are cracked and edges are set. Cool for 2-3 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks. Yield: about 4 dozen.
