Gwen Walz's Ginger Snap Cookies
  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.

  2. In medium bowl, combine flour, salt, baking soda, and spices.

  3. In mixer, cream shortening and sugar until fluffy. Beat in egg, then molasses.

  4. Slowly mix in flour and spice mixture. Dough will be tacky but stiff.

  5. Scoop 1” dough into balls and drop in cinnamon sugar mixture. Roll in the mixture, then transfer to the baking sheet. Leave space between to allow for spreading.

  6. Bake for 10-12 minutes, rotating trays halfway. When done, outside edge should be just set and soft in the center.

  7. Allow to cool. Store in airtight container.
