Tess' Favorite Chewy Gingersnaps

Prep 30 minutes
Course Desserts
Servings 1 dozen

Ingredients
  

  • 3/4 cup shortening
  • 4 tbsp molasses
  • 1 organic brown egg
  • 1 cup organic sugar
  • 2 cups gluten-free Cup-4-Cup flour
  • 3 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp ground ginger
  • 1/2 tsp cloves
  • 1 tsp salt
  • extra sugar for rolling

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°F
  • Combine the wet ingredients with the dry (the dough will be crumbly)
  • Add the extra sugar for rolling to a small bowl.
  • Using your hands, roll the batter into 1 1/2 inch balls and roll each ball in the sugar. Bake for 10-15 minutes until the exterior starts to crack (they will still appear soft - be careful not to overcook if you like them chewy).
  • Pull out of the oven and let cool for 10 minutes. Enjoy!
