    List of Ingredients




    1 cup packed light brown sugar
    3/4 cup vegetable shortening, such as Crisco
    1 egg
    1/4 cup light Karo syrup
    1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour 1 cup old-fashioned or quick oats, uncooked
    2 teaspoons baking soda
    2 teaspoons ground ginger 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    1/2 cup or more sugar

    Recipe



    Combine light brown sugar and shortening; beat until creamy. Stir in egg and Karo syrup.

    Add flour, oats, baking soda, ginger, cinnamon and salt to the creamed mixture and mix well. Chill dough for 1 hour.

    Lightly grease a cookie sheet and preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Sprinkle about 1/2 cup granulated sugar on a plate and spread it out.

    Roll spoonfuls of dough into 1-inch balls, then drop balls into sugar on the plate and roll around to cover.

    Place sugared dough balls on cookie sheet 2 inches apart. Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until lightly browned. Let stand 3 minutes before removing to racks to cool.

    Makes 4 dozen cookies.
