what better to revive it for the winter season than my mother's infamous
MOLASSES COOKIES
Ingredients:
1 c. sugar
2/3 c. margarine (not butter)
1 egg
4 tbsp. molasses (dark)
1/4 tsp. ground cloves
2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
2 c. flour
1 tsp ground ginger
1 tsp ground cinammon
Mix all ingredients together. It doesn't work to use a mixer. I like to use -gasp- my bare hands. Chill the dough for 2 hours (or 1.5...) Roll into 1-2 inch balls and dip in sugar. Place on greased cookie sheet and flatten balls. Bake @ 350 for about 10 minutes.
Flatten balls, heh.
