These cookies go really fast. I always have to double the batch. If you like to use cut outs and make them into different shapes it works great too.
Ingredients:
2 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground cloves
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup sugar
3/4 cup shortening
1 egg
1/4 cup dark molasses
Directions:
1. Mix all the dry ingredients together: baking soda, cinnamon, cloves, ginger and salt.
2. Blend together the sugar, shortening, egg and molasses and pour into dry ingredients, mix well and form into balls. Press down to 1/2 inches, sprinkle sugar on top. Bake at 375 degrees for 8-10 minutes until starts to crack on top.
