Krinkle Cookie

What could be better than a glass of milk and "Krinkle"? I have been making Krinkles for over 35 years-they are a treat for both family and co-workers!
1. Cream together: 1 & 1/2 C. shortening, 1 tsp. vanilla, 2 C. sugar.
2. Add: 2 eggs, 1/2 C. molasses.
3. Add dry ingredients: 4 C. flour, 1& 1/3 T. baking soda, 2 tsp. cinnamon, 1 tsp. cloves, 1 tsp. giner, 2 tsp. salt. Mix well & form balls.
4. Roll balls in: 1 C. sugar, 1/2 tsp. cinnamon, 1/2 tsp. salt.
5. Bake on ungreased cookie sheet @375 degrees F for approximately 10 minutes (just until raised cookie falls to become wrinkled). Do not overbake.
ENJOY!!!!
