Soft Gingersnaps

I've had this recipe for years, but recently rediscovered how good they are.

¾ c. shortening
1 c. brown sugar
¼ c. molasses
1 egg
Mix above ingredients, then add:
1 t. ginger
½ t. salt
1 t. cinnamon
½ t. cloves
2 t. soda
Beat in:2 ¼ c. flour

Mix. Roll into balls and roll into white sugar.
Bake on sheet.Bake 7-9 min, on 375
Leave SOFT, even if you think they're a little underbaked.
