One of my favorite cookie recipes!
They really are soft and perfect!
1/2 cup soft butter (I use Blue Bonnet margarine)
1/2 cup shortening
1 1/2 cup sugar
Beat the above three ingredients until they're light and fluffy.
Then beat in:
1/2 cup molasses
2 eggs, slightly beaten
In a separate bowl combine:
4 cups flour
1/2 tsp salt
2 1/2 tsp soda
2 1/4 tsp ginger
1 1/2 tsp cloves
1 1/2 tsp cinnamon
Add the above to the creamed mixture and mix until blended and smooth. Roll into 1 1/2" balls and dip tops in sugar (the recipe says regular sugar, but I always use the 'Sugar in the Raw' and it looks great). Bake at 350º for 11 minutes. DON'T OVERBAKE.
