I have no idea who Barb is, but this is her recipe in my sister-in-law's recipe book. What can I say, over the holidays we keep making more as they don't last long. THE BEST!!!
Pre-heat oven to 325F.
3/4 c. softened butter
1 c. white sugar
1 c. white sugar
1 egg
1/4 c. molasses
Cream the butter and sugar, add egg and molasses.
2 cups flour
2 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. salt
2 tsp. ground ginger
1 tsp. cinnamon
1 tsp. ground clove
1/4 tsp. nutmeg ( I added this...love nutmeg, but can be omitted!)
Combine the dry into the wet. It is a stiffer dough that you can actually knead by hand at the end. Make small perfectly rolled balls and dip into a bit of sugar. These cookies spread into nice rounds, so space well on the cookie sheet.
Bake for 8-9 minutes, do not overbake.
OH SO CHEWY!!!!!! Great with a cuppa tea...
