These cookies may lack the "snap" of traditional gingersnaps, but you will not be able to resist this soft, chewy cookie loaded with spice.

INGREDIENTS:
3/4 cup butter
1 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup molasses
1 egg
2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
2 1/4 cup flour

DIRECTIONS:
Cream butter, brown sugar, molasses, and egg until fluffy.  Stir dry ingredients into molasses mixture.  Form into balls, and roll in sugar (optional).

Bake at 350 for 8 minutes.
