How Do You Make Easy Ginger Cookies?
To make easy ginger cookies, first, cream 1/2 cup softened butter and 3/4 cup packed brown sugar until fluffy. Then, add 1 egg and 1/4 cup molasses, and mix well. In a separate bowl, mix 2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons ground ginger, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and mix well. Chill the dough for at least an hour, roll it into small balls, and flatten them onto a greased baking sheet. Bake the cookies at 350°F (175°C) for 10-12 minutes, or until lightly browned. Cool on a wire rack and enjoy!
