Gingersnaps or Molasses Cookies

Saturday, January 2, 2010

2 C. Sifted Flour
1 T. Ground Ginger
2 t. Soda
1 t. Cinnamon
1/2 t. Salt
3/4 C. Shortening
1 C. Sugar
1 Egg
1/4 C. Molasses

Sift all dry ingredients. Cream shortening and sugars; add eggs and molasses. Stir in flour mixture; shape into balls. Roll in additional sugar; place on ungreased cookie sheets. Bake at 350 degrees 12 to 15 minutes. Yield: 4-5 dozen cookies.

I usually double or triple the recipe to have plenty of cookies on hand.
