From: Kris Williams <KWILLIAMS@WESTY.WESTMAR.EDU> Date: Mon, 22 Jul 1996 11:26:26 -0500 These have been in my family for gobs of years. Mail well mom mailed to me when I was stationed in the old Fereral Republic of Germany(FRG) now known as just Germany. Sift together flour, salt, soda and spices(all measurements are prior to sifting), Set aside. Cream shortening & sugar. Add eggs and molasses. Slowly blend in sifted flour mixture. Chill dough at least 3 hors. Roll into walni=ut sized balls and dip into small bowl(custard bowl works well) with sugar. Place sugar side up about 3 inches apart on Greased cookie sheet. Sprinkle 2-3 drops of water on each cookie. Bake in pre-heated 375F oven for 10-12 min.(I have a gas oven and it takes about 8 minutes so be careful of the time. The bottoms scorch easily) Makes about 4 dozen. EAT-L Digest 21 July 96 From the EAT-L recipe list. Downloaded from Glen's MM Recipe Archive, http://www.erols.com/hosey.
