    List of Ingredients




    Nonstick cooking spray
    1/3 cup margarine, softened
    2/3 cup packed brown sugar
    1 teaspoon baking soda
    1 teaspoon ground ginger
    1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    1 egg
    1/4 cup dark molasses
    1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
    1/2 cup whole wheat flour
    1/4 cup granulated sugar
    1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

    Recipe



    1. Spray cookie sheet with nonstick spray; set aside.
    2. In a large mixing bowl beat the margarine with an electric mixer on medium to high speed for 30 seconds. Add the brown sugar, baking soda, ginger, and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon; beat until combined. Beat in egg and molasses. Beat in as much of the all-purpose and whole wheat flour as you can with the mixer. Stir in any remaining flour with a wooden spoon. Cover and chill in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
    3. Shape dough into 1-inch balls. Combine the granulated sugar and 1 teaspoon cinnamon. Roll balls in sugar-cinnamon mixture. Place 2 inches apart on prepared cookie sheet. Bake in a 350 degree F oven for 10 to 11 minutes or until set and tops are cracked. Remove from cookie sheet. Cool on a wire rack. Makes about 4 dozen.
