This very easy to bake gingersnaps cookies is family's favourite, we usually bake it during holiday season but you can bake it anytime of the year. My kids just love its crispness outside and softness inside, they eat it fresh from the oven. I find it very hard to balance my time between work and family and baking is my way of finding time with my kids. This recipe is from Betty Crocker's Cookbook, the recipe is as follow:

3/4 cup shortening
1 cup brown sugar (packed)
1 egg
1/4 cup molasses
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour*
2 tsp. soda
1 tsp. cinnamon
1 tsp. ginger
1/2 tsp. cloves
1/4 tsp salt
Granulated Sugar

Mix thoroughly shortening, brown sugar, egg and molasses. Blend in remaining ingredients except granulated sugar. Cover; chill 1 hour.

Heat oven to 375 degree. Shape dough by rounded teaspoonfuls into balls. Dip tops in granulated sugar. Place balls sugared side up 3 inches apart on lightly greased baking sheet. Bake 10 to 12 minutes or just until set (I do mine to only 7 minutes). Immediately remove from baking sheet.

4 dozen cookies.

*If using self-rising flour, decrease soda to 1 teaspoon and omit salt.
