These guys are a thinner cookie with a little crispiness and a little chewiness - just right. :)
Ginger Snaps
What's In It:
3/4 c shortening
1 c sugar
1 egg
1/4 c molasses
2 1/2 c flour
2 t baking soda
1 t ginger
1 t cloves
1 t cinnamon
1/2 c sugar (for rolling)
What To Do With It:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Cream shortening. Add sugar, egg, and molasses. Mix well. Add baking soda and spices. Add flour and beat until smooth, mixture will be very stiff.
Roll a heaping teaspoon of mixture into a ball and then roll in sugar.

Ze-Ra was a huge help and actually rolled out over half of the cookies!
Te-Man did his part too - somebody's gotta eat 'em! :)
