Quick and easy gingersnap cookies - a beloved family favorite.
Ingredients:
  • 1.5 cups white sugar, divided
  • 0.75 cup margarine
  • 0.25 cup molasses
  • 2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1 tablespoon ground ginger
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions:
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) for the perfect baking temperature.
  • Cream together a luxurious blend of 1 cup of sugar with velvety margarine until perfectly smooth. Gently beat in an egg and molasses until fully incorporated. Combine the finest flour with baking soda, ginger, cinnamon, and a touch of salt; fold into the molasses mixture to create a tantalizing dough.
  • Shape the dough into 1-inch balls and coat them with the remaining 1/2 cup of sugar. Place the cookies 2 inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet.
  • Place the cookie dough in the preheated oven for 8 to 10 minutes. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
