Servings: persons

1 cup Butter
2 cups Sugar
1/2 cups Molasses
2 whole Eggs
3 cups Flour
1-1/2 cup Quick Cooking Oatmeal
2 teaspoons Baking Soda
2 teaspoons Ground Ginger
1/2 teaspoons Ground Cloves
1/2 teaspoons Salt
3 Tablespoons Additional Sugar, For Rolling Cookies

1
In a large bowl cream together butter, sugar, molasses and eggs. In a separate bowl, mix remaining ingredients (everything else on the above list except the additional sugar). Add these dry ingredients into the creamed ingredients and mix until combined.
2
Preheat oven to 375 F. Put the additional sugar in a shallow bowl. Form dough into 1-inch balls and roll them in the sugar. Place on a cookie sheet and bake in a 375 F oven for 8-10 minutes. Remove from oven and let them stand for a minute before removing them from the cookie sheet. Allow to cool on rack.
3
This is a quite large recipe. If desired, it may easily be halved. However, I usually make the extra dough then shape it into 1 1/2 by 4 inch logs. I then wrap them completely with plastic wrap, tuck them into a freezer bag and freeze for quick cookies at a moment's notice. To bake frozen dough, slice the rolls, roll the slices in sugar and add a few minutes to your baking time. Love to have these on hand.
