Teaspoons
Ground Cinnamon 2/3

Tablespoons
Light Corn Syrup
Cinnamon And Sugar Mixed
Together To Coat Cookies
Directions:
Combine flour, soda, cloves, salt, ginger, & cinnamon. Do
not sift. Stir to mix well. Beat together butter, shortening, & sugar til
fluffy. Stir in eggs, molasses, & corn syrup until well blended. Add
flour
mixture to creamed
mixture. Beat until smooth & pliable. Pinch off dough by the rounded
teaspoonful. Roll into smooth balls. Roll balls in cinnamon sugar to coat
completely. Place on ungreased cookie sheets. Bake at 350
degrees 10 minutes or until cookies appear cracked, are firm
but feel soft to the touch. NOTE: I usually undercook these
cookies for a soft center. But for ginger snaps and a crispy
cookie, cook them the full time. Lilli Beach
