Ginger Snaps

I have made this recipe a lot the last month. It is the boys favorite right now so I thought I would share. I am not usually a big fan of gingersnaps but I love these.

Ginger Snaps

1 cup sugar
3/4 cup real butter
1 egg
1/4 cup light molasses
2 cups flour
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp ground cloves
1 tsp ginger
2 tsp baking soda

Cream sugar, butter, egg, and molasses well. Add remaining ingredients and mix well. Drop walnut sized balls on cookie sheet and bake at 350 for 5-8 minutes.

that is the right kind of cookie to make...the one that you don't want to eat very much! I am a fan of gingersnaps, unfortunately!
