These have been a favorite since I was a little girl. I remember eating these in front of the TV watching Romper room . The dough is quite soft, so I always put it in the fridge between baking batches for easier rolling.

1 large egg
1/4 cup molasses
2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon ground cloves
3/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon cinnamon
additional sugar, to roll cookies in
Directions:
1. Cream Crisco, sugar, egg, and molasses till fluffy.
