Touchdown Ginger Cookies

Description
My favorite winter cookie. It’s a variation of my mother’s recipe. She always used 1/2 teaspoon cloves but I use a combination of cardamom and cloves. Yum!
Ingredients
- ¾ cups Butter Flavored Shortening
- 1 cup Sugar, Plus More For Rolling Cookies
- 1 whole Egg
- ¼ cups Molasses
- 2 cups Flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking Soda
- 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
- ½ teaspoons Ginger
- ½ teaspoons Salt
- ¼ teaspoons Cloves
- ¼ teaspoons Cardamom
Preparation
Cream the shortening and sugar. Add egg and molasses and beat well. Sift the dry ingredients (flour, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, salt, cloves, cardamom) together and add to the egg-molasses mixture.
Mold into small balls and roll in granulated sugar. Do not flatten.
Bake at 350ºF for about 10 minutes. Yum!
Notes:
You can also just use 1/2 teaspoon cloves and omit the cardamom. You can also roll this in raw sugar, which makes them prettier.
