MRS. CAWTHORNE’S FAVORITE MOLASSES SUGAR COOKIES
Cookies and Candies
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup margarine
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup molasses
- 1 egg
- 2 cups sifted flour
- 2 teaspoons baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1/2 teaspoon ginger
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Directions
Melt margarine over low heat; cool. Add sugar, molasses and egg. Beat well. Sift dry ingredients together and add to mixture, blending well. Chill.
Form into 1-inch balls; roll in granulated sugar. Place on greased cookie sheet 2 inches apart. Press down to flatten. Bake at 375° for 8 to 10 minutes.
I omitted the cloves and didn’t chill the dough before forming the balls and pressing down to flatten.
