ELOISE'S GINGER COOKIES
Eloise used to make these cookies for us when I was a little girl. These are the best! To lighten them up, applesauce can be substituted for part or all of the shortening. The flavor is still great, but the texture will change.

- Beat 1 cup white sugar and shortening together in a large bowl until light and creamy. Add molasses and egg; beat until smooth.
- Whisk flour, baking soda, ginger, cinnamon, and salt together in a bowl. Gradually stir flour mixture into shortening mixture until dough is just-combined.
