I love making these when autumn days come. My neighbor got the recipe from Better Homes and Gardens 1998 and passed it on to my mom before she died of cancer.
Cream:
3/4 cup butter
3/4 cup shortening
2 cups sugar (I use some brown sugar)
Add and beat:
2 eggs
Add and cream:
1/2 cup molasses
Sift together and stir in:
4 1/2 cups flour ( I use 1-2 cups whole wheat)
4 tsp. ginger
2 tsp. baking soda
1 1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1 tsp. cloves
1/4 tsp. salt
Scoop by Tablespoonfuls, roll in granulated sugar or sprinkle with sugar and place on ungreased baking sheets. Bake 12-14 minutes at 350F, OR 10-12 minutes at 325F in convection oven. Makes 2-3 doz cookies.
