Categories: Cookies
Yield: 1 servings

1 c Sugar
1 c Margarine; or
1/2 c Lard; and
1/2 c Butter
2 ts Soda
1 c Molasses
1 tb Ginger
1/4 c Water; hot
1 1/2 c Flour

Mix together sugar, shortening, molasses and ginger. Dissolve soda in
hot water. Add to sugar mixture. Stir in flour. Pinch off little pieces of
dough the size of walnuts. Place on greased baking sheet. Space them, as
when put in oven they will puff up and when done will flatten out and
crackle all over top. Bake at 350 degrees for 8 to 10 minutes, checking
often as they burn easily. Let cool before removing from pan.
