Ingredients:

  • 3/4 cup margarine, melted
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1/4 cup molasses
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/2 cup white sugar

    Preparation:

    1. In a medium bowl, mix together the melted margarine, 1 cup sugar, and egg until smooth. Stir in the molasses. Combine the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, cloves, and ginger- blend into the molasses mixture. Cover, and chill dough for 1 hour.

    2. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Roll dough into walnut sized balls, and roll them in the remaining white sugar. Place cookies 2 inches apart onto ungreased baking sheets.

    3. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven, until tops are cracked. Cool on wire racks.

    Story:

    These are very delicious cookies! The first time I baked them I used round pizza pans and they came out browned and crispy. The next time I used regular baking sheets and they were lighter and a little chewier.
