These are chewy, sweet cookies from a recipe of Gail’s (so I can’t take credit for this one!)

Ingredients

• 3/4 C Crisco – using another shortening will alter the consistency
• 1 C white sugar
• 1/4 C molasses
• 1 egg
• 2 C flour
• 2 t baking soda
• 1 t cinnamon (ground)
• 1 t ginger (ground)
• 1 t cloves (ground)
• Extra white granulated sugar (2/3 C approx)

Equipment

• baking sheet
• (optional) scooper/baller (#70)

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 F.

Mix ingredients well.

Form into small balls (3/4″) and roll each ball in granulated sugar.

Bake for 10-12 minutes (less time makes them chewier).
