3/4 cup oleo 1/2 cup brown sugar

1/2 cup white sugar 1 egg

4 Tablespoons molasses 2 cups flour

1 teaspoon ginger 1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon cloves

Cream shortening and sugar, beat in egg, molasses, flour and spices. Roll in small ball and dip in sugar. Bake 10 minutes in a 350 degree oven. I like mine thin so I flatten them with a glass, greased and dipped in sugar.
