Gingersnaps

 
It would not be Christmas if there wasn't at least something with ginger in it, whether it be a gingerbread house, gingerbread men, or gingersnaps. Since I am not a fan of gingerbread I prefer to make these gingersnaps instead. These cookies are sweet, chewy, and festive making them my staple cookie to make at Christmas time. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do! See you Monday for the fourth cookie recipe and stocking stuffer ideas!
 
Gingersnaps:
 
Ingredients:
1 cup sugar
3/4 cup vegetable oil
1/4 cup molasses
1 egg, lightly beaten
2 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon ginger
1/2 teaspoon cloves
Additional sugar to roll cookies in
