Ginger Snap Cookies

Ginger Snaps...the way mom used to make them...soft and chewy....these are also GREAT with milk!
Kids love to help by rolling the balls of dough in the sugar before baking.

3/4 cup fat (that's what it says...butter/margerine is what I remember using)
1 cup sugar
1 egg
1/4 cup molasses
2 cups flour
2 tsps. baking soda
1 tsp. ground cinnamon
1 Tbsp. ground ginger
1 tsp. ground cloves
1/2 tsp. salt

Mix all ingredients together and roll into small walnut sized balls. Roll balls in sugar to coat and place 2-inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake at 350* for 15 minutes. Makes approximately 40 cookies.
