So here you go -
(Soft) Ginger Snap Cookies
3/4 cup shortening
1 cup sugar
1/4 cup molasses
2 cup flour
1 egg
2 tsp soda
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp ginger
1 tsp cloves
1 tsp cinnamon
Cream shortening and sugar. Add egg and molasses. Add sifted, dry ingredients. Roll in a ball about the size of a walnut and then roll in cinnamon sugar. Bake @ 375 degree for about 7-8 minutes.
The secret or key to these cookies is to not cook them for too long. You'll pull them out before they look done - but you'll want a few cracks along the top of the cookies.
YUM!
