Now, you know that I like to give credit where credit is due but I really do NOT know where I got this recipe from. Every Christmas I hauled the faded old recipe card out of the recipe box and made these Ginger Crinkles. In fact, last year I had to rewrite the recipe onto a new card because I simply could not read the old one anymore!
\nWherever I got the recipe from, I am sure glad I did! It is one of my favourites.<\/p>\n

Ginger Crinkles<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

3\/4 cup Butter, room temperature
\n1 cup Brown Sugar, packed
\n1 Egg
\n1\/4 cup Fancy Molasses
\n1 teaspoon Vanilla
\n2 cups Flour
\n2 teaspoon Baking Powder
\n2 teaspoons ground Ginger
\n1 teaspoon ground Cinnamon
\n1\/2 teaspoon ground Allspice
\n1\/4 teaspoon ground Cloves
\n1\/2 teaspoon Salt
\n1\/4 cup Sugar for Rolling Cookie Dough in<\/p>\n

Preheat oven to 350F.
\nLine 4 baking trays with parchment paper.<\/p>\n

In a medium mixing bowl combine flour, baking powder, salt and spices; set aside.
\nIn large bowl, beat butter with brown sugar until well blended.
\nAdd egg, molasses and vanilla; beat until smooth.
\nStir half the flour mixture into the creamed mixture, until well incorporated.
\nStir in remaining flour mixture and stir until no flour is visible.
\nGather into a ball, place in a small bowl, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for about an hour. Or you can speed things up a bit by placing in the freezer compartment for 30 minutes.
\nRoll about 1 1\/2 teaspoons of dough into a ball; roll in sugar and place about 2″ apart on prepared baking tray.
\nRepeat with remaining dough.
\nBake in preheated 350F oven for about 12 minutes, rotating trays at 6 minutes; cookies will flatten slightly, have cracked tops and bottoms are lightly browned.
\nLet cool on baking trays on wire racks for about 5 minutes before transferring to wire rack to cool completely.<\/p>\n
