These are my dad's favourite cookies. He says they remind him of the cookies his mom used to make. Chewy and delicious....they scream for an accompanying cold glass of milk or cup of tea. Enjoy! Ingredients:
14 tablespoons butter, melted (i wouldn't substitute margarine for this!) |
2 cups white sugar, divided |
1/3 cup molasses |
1 large egg, lightly beaten |
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour |
1 1/4 teaspoons ground ginger |
1 teaspoon cinnamon |
3/4 teaspoon baking soda |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. In a medium size bowl, mix the melted butter, 1 cup of sugar and the molasses.
3. Add egg and stir until well mixed.
4. In a separtate bowl, mix the flour, ginger, cinnamon, baking soda and salt.
5. Gradually add to the butter mixture, stirring until a soft dough is formed.
6. Shape the dough into 1-inch balls, then roll each ball in the remaining sugar.
