hi
I really liked these cookies. Spicy(I upped the spices) with crisp edges and a chewy middle as long as you don't overbake and keep a slice of bread in your cookie jar.
Molasses Cookies
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
1-2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2-1 teaspoon ground cloves
1/2-1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 cup white sugar
DIRECTIONS:
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.
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.
Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven, until tops are cracked. Cool on wire racks.
