Majek Gingersnaps

    I have another gingersnap recipe that I thought was very good.  Until I tried these.  Much spicer, and much more yummy!  If you find these too spicy, try Sparkling Gingersnaps.

3/4 C melted butter         2 C flour

1 1/2 C sugar 1 t baking soda

5 T molasses 2 t ea. ginger, cloves,

1 egg                                              & cinnamon


Additional sugar or rolling (granulated or turbinado)


Preheat oven to 350°.  Beat together ingredients on the left-hand column until light and creamy.  Add the dry ingredients and mix until combined.

Form into 1-inch balls.  Roll in sugar.  Place on an ungreased cookie sheet 3" apart.  Bake for 10 minutes.  Remove while puffy.  (It will deflate and flatten as it cools.)  Cool for a few minutes before removing from cookie sheet.

Makes about 3 dozen.
