Another warm fuzzy feeling snack on a winter’s day

1 c. sugar
1 egg
3/4 c. shortening
4 tbsp molasses
2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp each cinnamon, cloves, ginger
2 cups flour

Cream shortening; add sugar, eggs, molasses, and beat.
Mix remaining ingredients and add to above mixture.
Form into balls the size of a walnut, dipping on side into white sugar and arrange on greased cookie sheet, allowing room to spread.

Bake in 350F = 180C oven about 15 minutes.
They will have crinkly appearance.

Enjoy with a nice cuppa tea, coffee, or cold milk :o)
