Molasses Cookies
¾ C shortening (margarine)
1 C sugar
¼ C dark molasses
1 egg
2 tsp soda

1 tsp cinnamon
½ tsp each cloves, ginger, salt
Melt shortening; cool. Add sugar, molasses and egg. Beat well. Sift dry ingredients and add to first mixture. Mix well. Chill. Roll in one-inch balls; roll in granulated sugar. Bake on greased cookie sheet at 375 for about 7 minutes. (Longer for a crisp cookie, these will be soft and chewy.)
