3/4 c shortening
1 cup sugar
1 egg
1/4 cup molasses
2 cups flour
1 tsp ginger
2 tsp soda
1 tsp salt
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground cloves
Mix all together and form into balls. Roll in sugar and put on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake in a 350 oven for 10 minutes. Leave on the cookie sheet a few minutes before removing. (I doubled the recipe and got about 4 dozen 3 inch cookies.)
After the cookies have cooled, you can dip half in white chocolate or drizzle the white chocolate across the top.

Sounds yummy. Do the cookies come out crispy like store-bought gingersnaps, or are they softer?
Janelle - they are softer...which is why I really like them. I don't generally care for the crispy store bought kind.
Yummy, I am coming over for sure tonight to raid your kitchen! I remember those good sugar cookies you made last time. Jeannen could not get enough of them! Okay and me to!
Really good -- I just ate one. Thanks!!
