Molasses Sugar Cookies

This is Dear Hubby's favorite cookies of all time. In fact, in spite of being a confirmed chocoholic, he will choose this cookies over anything chocolate. Which for him, is really saying something! 3/4 cup melted shortening 1 cup packed brown sugar 1/4 cup molasses 1 egg, beaten 2 teaspoons baking soda 2 cups all-purpose flour 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1/2 teaspoon salt Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). In a medium bowl, blend the shortening, sugar, molasses and egg. Add the baking soda, flour, clove, ginger, cinnamon and salt; mix well. Form into 1 inch balls and roll in granulated sugar. Place on cookie sheets 2 inches apart and bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven. Cool on a flat surface.
