List of Ingredients
3/4 cups of margarine (I use butter)
1 cup packed brown sugar
1 egg
1/4 cup molasses
2 1/4 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon cloves
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon fresh ginger, peeled and finely minced
Recipe
Cream butter, sugar, egg and molasses together. Add dry ingredients. Roll and chill in plastic wrap roll for an hour.
Cut about 1 to 2 inch rounds and bake at 375 for 8 to 10 minutes.
Shake warm cookies carefully in bag of sugar: or (sister-in-law Betty's version): ice with powdered sugar thinned a bit with orange juice. Spread on cookies while still hot.
