1 cup butter |
2 eggs |
1/2 cup molasses |
2 teaspoons baking soda |

1 teaspoon salt |
4 cups flour |
Directions:
1. 1. Cream Butter and Sugar.
2. 2. Add eggs and molasses and mix well.
3. 3. Add remaining ingredients except flour and mix well.
4. 4. Add flour 1 cup at a time. Dough will be very stiff.

6. 6. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
7. 7. Roll teaspoon of dough into small ball and place on cookie sheet.
8. 8. Bake at 350 deg. for 7-9 minutes.
