List of Ingredients




4 C Flour
3/4 t  Baking Soda
1 t  ground Ginger
1 1/2 t  ground Cinnamon
1 1/2 t  ground Cloves
1/2 t  Salt
1/2 C Molasses
1 1/4 C Sugar


Recipe



1. Combine flour, spices, salt, and baking soda - stir well. Place flour mixture in a clean mason jar. Pack down tight so everything will fit in the jar. (Use a spoon or a mallet.) Add other ingredients, one item at a time, packing each layer down.
2. Put the lid on the jar and tie a ribbon around the lid. You can add a personalized label, if you wish. As an added touch, tie a wooden spoon to the lid with a piece of ribbon.
3. Print out the following instructions on a gift card and tape the card to the jar:
Whip 1 C Butter or Shortening until light and fluffy. Add 1/2 C Molasses. Add 2 Eggs and 1 t Vanilla and beat until mixed. Stir in the ingredients from this jar until well combined. Drop teaspoons of dough on a greased cookie sheet. Bake for 12 - 14 minutes at 350 degrees F.
