Time 30m

Yield 30

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups sifted all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon ground ginger
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon salt
¾ cup shortening
1 cup white sugar
1 egg
¼ cup dark molasses
⅓ cup cinnamon sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Sift the flour, ginger, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt into a mixing bowl. Stir the mixture to blend evenly, and sift a second time into another bowl.
  • Place the shortening into a mixing bowl and beat until creamy. Gradually beat in the white sugar. Beat in the egg, and dark molasses. Sift 1/3 of the flour mixture into the shortening mixture; stir to thoroughly blend. Sift in the remaining flour mixture, and mix together until a soft dough forms. Pinch off small amounts of dough and roll into 1 inch diameter balls between your hands. Roll each ball in cinnamon sugar, and place 2 inches apart on an ungreased baking sheet.
  • Bake in preheated oven until the tops are rounded and slightly cracked, about 10 minutes. Cool cookies on a wire rack. Store in an air tight container.

GRANDMA'S CHRISTMAS COOKIE



Grandma's Christmas Cookie image

My Grandmother used to make these for my mother and me for years. We took it for granted that she would always be here to do so. My mother and I played with the ingredients until we think we have duplicated Grandma's recipe. The light coating of powdered sugar makes these stand out from the other cookies in the tin.

4 ½ cups sifted all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 teaspoons cream of tartar
½ teaspoon salt

GRANDMA'S CHEWY MOLASSES COOKIES



Grandma's Chewy Molasses Cookies image

These chewy cookies are what you remember from your childhood....soft inside, a fragrant spicy aroma, and a crinkle-top that is crusted with sugar. The only change I made from my Grandma's recipe was to get rid of the artery-clogging shortening. These cookies hold up well for shipping - I mail them to my kids who are in college.

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h30m

Yield 20 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 cup butter, room temperature
1 cup brown sugar, packed
1/4 cup molasses
1 egg
2 cups flour
1/4 cup wheat germ
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon clove
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ginger
1 teaspoon baking soda

Steps:

  • Using a strong mixer, mix butter and sugar until sugar has aerated the butter and it is light and fluffy (5 minutes). Blend in molasses and egg gently.
  • While butter/sugar is mixing, blend all dry ingredients in a separate bowl. Add to creamed mixture in thirds until fully blended (this is where the powerful mixer comes in handy!).
  • Refrigerate 1 hour (which makes it easier to roll into balls).
  • Form into balls a little smaller than a golf ball and roll in sugar. Place on parchment paper or greased sheet.
  • Bake 350 degrees for 12-13 minutes (for 20 large cookies).
  • Hint - When the cookies are done baking, they puff up in the center and crack, but wait until the inside of the crack turns from shiny dark brown (not cooked) to medium brown (done).

GRANDMA'S CLASSIC NO-BAKE COOKIES



Grandma's Classic No-Bake Cookies image

This is the first cookie I ever learned to make as a child. They're very delicious with the peanut butter and oatmeal. You can eat them fresh out of the pan in a bowl with a spoon, which is delicious with a glass of milk besides. This no-bake cookie recipe was my grandmother's, and my mother taught it to her children, and I will to mine. I hope you have as much fun making this either by yourself or with your children, as I did with my mom. Separate cookies with waxed paper if putting in a tin or baggie to prevent sticking.
