Molasses Cookies

Molasses Cookies

One of my favorite cookies as a kid.  Loved eating them when they were still warm out of the oven.  Trying to wait until they were cool enough to eat.
2
3/4 cup butter
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup white sugar
1 large egg
1/2 cup molasses
2 1/2 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon allspice
1 teaspoon nutmeg
1. Cream together butter and brown sugar.
2. Stir in egg and molasses and mix well.
3. Fold in dry ingredients and stir.
4. Cover and chill until firm (1-2 hours).
5. Preheat oven to 350°F.
6. Roll dough into small balls and roll in white sugar.
7. Place on lightly greased cookie sheet.
8. Bake at 350°F for 9-10 minutes.
9. Leave on sheet one minute until set.
