Directions:
- In a bowl cream shortening with the brown sugar until mixture is light and fluffy. Stir in the egg and the molasses.
- In another bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, and salt.
- Add the flour mixture, in batches, to the shortening mixture. Blend the dough well.
- Chill the dough, covered, for 1 hour.
- Roll leve1 tablespoons of the dough into balls, dip one side of each ball into the granulated sugar, and arrange sugared sides up about 3 inches apart on lightly greased baking sheets.
- Bake the cookies in batches in a 375° oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until they are puffed and cracked on top.
- Transfer the cookies to racks and let them cool.
