List of Ingredients
8 ounces dark molasses
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup butter
1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cloves
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon allspice
1/2 teaspoon grated nutmeg
1 teaspoon baking soda
4 cups flourRecipe
Mix flour, sugar, butter, and spices together. Heat molasses until lukewarm and add baking soda to it. Add molasses to rest of ingredients and mix well. If necessary, add a little water to the dough to get it to a soft enough consistency to roll it. Roll the dough on a well floured surface, making it as thin as humanly possible. (Paper thin, if you can!) Cut into desired shapes, and transfer to a non-stick cookie sheet. Bake at 350ºF for 6 to 8 minutes. If you do it right, you'll end up with a delicately thin, not too sweet, yummy spicy cookie.
