Yield 2 dozen cookies

Number Of Ingredients 17

Cookies:
1 cup sugar
1 cup shortening
1 egg
1 cup molasses
2 teaspoons baking soda dissolved in 1 cup hot water
4 cups flour
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon ginger
1 teaspoon salt
Butter Cream Frosting:
1/2 cup butter
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 pound powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 tablespoons milk
Food coloring

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Mix together the egg, molasses, shortening, sugar, and baking soda dissolved in hot water. In a seperate bowl mix the flour, cinnamon, ginger, and salt. Add flour mixture to wet ingredients and stir until thouroughly mixed. Drop dough by the spoonful onto an ungreased cookie sheet and bake until the cookies puff up and are done in the middle (test with a toothpick as you would for cake). When done, transfer cookies to baking rack to cool a little before frosting. Frosting: Melt the butter and mix everything but the milk and food coloring together. Add just enough milk to make the right consistency of frosting, then stir in food coloring to the desired color.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your dish.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment. There are many different ways to make a recipe your own. Try using different ingredients, spices, and herbs to create your own unique dish.
  • Pay attention to the cooking times and temperatures. This is especially important for dishes that require precise cooking, such as baking and frying.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. When cooking meat or vegetables, make sure to give them enough space so that they can cook evenly.
  • Use a sharp knife. A sharp knife will make it easier to cut and chop your ingredients, and it will also help to prevent accidents.
