Categories     Cookies     Bake

Yield 4 doz cookies

Number Of Ingredients 10

3/4 cups butter
1 cup white sugar
1 egg
1/4 cup molasses
2 cups flour
2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
2 Tabs. powdered ginger
2 teas. cinnamon
extra sugar for topping

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees Mix all ingredients together. (if you want to be a pest about it, cream the butter, then add the sugar until light and fluffy. Blend in the molasses and egg. Combine all the dry and add to butter mix). Id didn't do all that. Roll into 1 inch balls. Roll the balls in sugar OR dip the bottom of a juice glass in sugar and use to flatten the balls. (that's what I did.) Place the balls on a greased cookie sheet about 2 inches apart and bake 10-12 mins until tops crack (Mine didn't.) Let cool and sprinkle tops with additional sugar. Optional: a pinch of cayenne or a teaspoon of cut up crystallized ginger.
