Ingredients:
4-1/2 cups flour
4 tsp. ground ginger
2 tsp. baking soda
1-1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
1 tsp. ground cloves
1/4 tsp. salt
1-1/2 cups shortening*
2 cups granulated sugar
2 eggs
1/2 cup molasses
3/4 cup coarse or granulated sugar
Directions:
Heat oven to 350 degrees. Stir flour, ginger, baking soda, cinnamon, cloves and salt in medium bowl; set aside.
Beat shortening in a large bowl with electric mixer on medium speed for 30 seconds. Gradually add 2 cups sugar, beating until fluffy. Add eggs and molasses; beat until well blended.
Beat in as much flour mixture as possible with mixer. Stir in any remaining flour mixture with wooden spoon. Shape dough into 2-inch balls with 1/4-cup ice cream scoop. Roll in 3/4-cup sugar.
Place 2-1/2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheets. Bake 12 to 14 minutes or until lightly browned and puffed. (Do not overbake or cookies will not be chewy.) Cool for 2 minutes; remove from cookie sheets. Cool on wire racks. Makes about 25 cookies.
*Note: to create the chewy texture, be sure to make these cookies with shortening, not butter or margarine.
Enjoy!
