DELICIOUS LOW-FAT GINGER MOLASSES COOKIES (HEALTHY!)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F and line the cookie sheet with parchment paper (this keeps the cookies softer).
• Cream the margarine and brown sugar in a large bowl, then stir in the egg whites(beaten) and the molasses and vinegar.
• Sift together remaining ingredients and add to the wet mixture.
• Shape into 24 balls and roll them in the additional granulated sugar. Lightly press them on the cookie sheet.
• Bake for 12 minutes. Let the cookies sit on the pan for about 2 minutes to firm slightly, then slide onto a cooling rack. ENJOY!
• Store these in an airtight container in layers lined with wax paper (prevents sogginess).
