1 tablespoon ground ginger

In a mixing bowl, combine the sugar and oil; mix well. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in molasses. Combine dry ingredients; gradually add to creamed mixture and mix well. Shape into 3/4 in balls and roll in sugar. Place 2 inches apart on ungreased baking sheets.
