These are not as spicy as my gingerbread men I make for the holidays but these have a really nice flavor to them
This is still some of my locally made molasses.
Start with 3.4 cup shortening. I like using butter flavored shortening for my baking.
1 cup brown sugar
Cream that together.
Add 1 egg
1/2 cup molasses
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon cinnamon1 teaspoon ginger
1 teaspoon ginger
2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
Mix well. Then cover and place in the fridge for about 2 hours or until firm.
When you take them out of the fridge. Roll into small balls and roll into sugar.
Then place on a parchment lined cookie sheet.
This batch is ready for the preheated 350 oven. Bake for 9-10 minutes.
They smell really good out of the oven.
