Shaker Spice Cookies
Categories: BiscuitsServes: 6 Servings
Ingredients:
- Stephen Ceideburg
- 2/3 c Vegetable oil
- 1 c Sugar
- 1/4 c Molasses
- 1 Egg
- 2 c Flour
- 2 ts Baking soda
- 1/2 ts Cloves
- 1/2 ts Ginger
- 1 ts Cinnamon
- 1/4 ts Salt
Instructions:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Put the vegetable oil, sugar, molasses and egg into a mixing bowl and using
a spoon, beat until well mixed.
Combine the flour, baking soda, cloves, ginger, cinnamon and salt in a bowl
and stir with a fork until well mixed.
Add to the liquid ingredients and stir until blended.
To make 2 1/2-inch round cookies use 1 tablespoon of dough per cookie (I
use a 1-tablespoon ice cream scoop, but you can roll the dough into
1-tablespoon-size balls by hand if you don't have a scoop.) Drop the dough
2-inches apart on a greased cookie sheet. Pat each rounded ball down just a
trifle.
Bake for 10 or 11 minutes.
Yields 48 cookies
