Well today I had to run a bunch of personal errands and now I am going to work on finishing up some of the many projects that I have laying around. I think today would be a good day to bake some cookies!!
Here is a recipe that I got from my grandmother. It is one of the easiest cookie recipes I have come across but you have to follow the directions exactly to the letter!
Molasses Sugar Cookies
Ingredients:
1 c sugar
3/4 c oil
1/4 c molasses
1 egg
2 c flour
2 ts baking soda
1/2 ts ground cloves
1 ts cinnamon
1/2 ts salt
Mix sugar and oil together, then stir in the molasses and the egg. In separate bowl combine all dry ingredients and mix well. Add dry mix to wet mix a little at a time. It will become thick. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight. **DO NOT SKIP THE REFRIGERATION STEP.
Preheat oven to 375. Lightly grease cookie sheet. Roll dough into 1" balls then roll balls in sugar. Place on cookie sheet. Cook 8-10 minutes. Makes approx 4 dozen cookies.
These cookies remind me of ginger snaps, but without the ginger of course. If you would like to add a little spice, you could add 1 ts of ground ginger or even 1 ts of white pepper.
I hope you all like this recipe as much as I do! Happy Baking!!!
