Soft Gingersnaps

Anne, your recipe made me quite famous yesterday. THANKS for sharing!! They were SO TASTY!


2 cups sugar
1 1/2 cup vegetable oil
2 eggs
1/2 cup molasses

4 cups flour
4 tsp baking soda
1 T ground ginger
2 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp salt

In a mixing bowl, combine sugar and oil. Mix well. Add eggs, one at a time, beat well after each. Stir in molasses. Combine dry ingredients - gradually add to creamed mixture and mix well. Shape into 3/4 inch balls and roll in sugar. Place 2" apart on cookie sheet. Bake at 350 for 10 -12 minutes. Remove to wire rack.

A fun addition, especially for the holidays: after cookies have cooled, dip half the cookie in white chocolate and cover with red & green sprinkles.
