Zubereitung von Grandma May's Molasses Cookies
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) of softened shortening and ¾ cup packed brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in ½ cup molasses, 1 tablespoon water, and 1 large egg until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon ground ginger, ½ teaspoon ground cloves, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Cover the bowl and chill the dough in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes (this helps prevent the cookies from spreading too much).
- Once chilled, roll the dough into 1-inch balls and roll each ball in granulated sugar.
- Place the sugar-coated dough balls onto ungreased baking sheets, leaving some space between each cookie.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are still slightly soft. (Check after 12 minutes)
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
