Gingersnaps

Are these healthy? No. Are they ridiculously good? Yes. Sometimes you just want a cookie, dammit.
My sister-in-law Tracy gave me this recipe years ago, and it rocks.


2¼ cup flour
1 cup brown sugar
3/4 cup butter
¼ cup molasses
1 egg
1 tsp each:
   baking soda
   baking powder
   ginger
   cinnamon
½ tsp. cloves (or dash nutmeg)
sugar

Lightly whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, & spices.
Cream together butter, brown sugar, molasses, & egg.
Stir in flour mixture.
Roll in to 1” balls, press in to sugar.
Bake at 375 for 8-10 minutes.
