Molasses crinkles

These are really yummy to make in the fall/winter

Ingredients:
3/4 c shortening
1 egg
1/4 c molasses (spray the measuring cup with cooking spray before you pour it and it will come right out when you add it to the bowl)
1 c sugar
2 t baking soda
1 t salt
1 t cinnamon
1 t cloves
1 t ground ginger
2 c flour

Directions:
I usually just mix together all the ingredients except the flour and then add that in last. Form the dough into 1" balls and roll in white or raw (demerara) sugar. Bake about 2" apart on a greased cookie sheet for 10 min @ 350 degrees ( might need to go ~1 minute extra on a stone). I usually let them cool for a few minutes before removing from the baking sheets. Makes ~3-4 dozen.
