List of Ingredients





This is not a soft cookie. Look for sorghum molasses in health food stores. Cane syrup is a better substitute than molasses, which is not as sweet.

Makes 3 to 4 dozen

2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour

2 teaspoons baking soda

¼ teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon ground cloves

1 teaspoon ground ginger

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1 cup brown sugar

¾ cup shortening

4 tablespoons sorghum molasses

1 egg

Sugar for dipping

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Sift together flour, baking soda, salt, cloves, ginger and cinnamon in a large bowl.

With a mixer, beat brown sugar and shortening together until creamy; add molasses and egg. Stir in dry mixture.

Shape into balls about the size of walnuts and dip tops in sugar. Bake 12 to 15 minutes.
