List of Ingredients
3/4 cup butter
1 cup brown sugar
1 beaten egg
1/4 cup molasses
1 1/2 cups flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon cloves
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
Recipe
Cream butter, sugar, egg and molasses. Add dry ingredients. Stir until smooth. Put dots of 1/8 teaspoons 1 inch apart on buttered cookie sheet. Bake at 325ºF for 5 to 6 minutes. They shouldn't be larger than a quarter or they'll be tough. I find it easy to put the dough in a pastry tube and pipe the dots on to the cookie sheet. Makes about 300!
