This was one of my favorite cookies growing up and now it's one of my daughter's favs. A nice moist cookie that tastes fantastic with butter/confectioner's sugar frosting.
Ingredients:
1 cup shortening
1 cup brown sugar
2 large eggs
2/3 cup light molasses
3/4 cup sour milk
4 cups flour
1 tablespoon cinnamon
1 tablespoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ginger
Directions:
1. Cream shortening and brown sugar.
2. Stir in eggs and molasses.
3. Stir together the flour and spices in a separate bowl.
4. Add the milk alternately with flour mixture until blended, but don't overmix.
5. Drop by tablespoonfuls onto greased baking sheet.
6. Bake at 350 degrees 10-12 minutes.
7. Cool and frost with buttercream frosting.
