Molasses Sorghum Cookies

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F. Oil or butter a large baking sheet.
2. In a large bowl, mix together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and ginger. Set aside.
3. In another large bowl, beat together the butter and brown sugar until fluffy.  Add the eggs one at a time, then the molasses, mix until well blended. Add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture. Beat at medium speed until the mixture doesn’t stick to the bowl, adding more flour if necessary.
4. To form each cookie, make a golf-ball-sized ball, and then flatten it between your hands. Dredge each flattened ball in the raw sugar.
5. Place the cookies on the prepared baking sheet about 1 to 2 inches apart, and bake for 6 to 7 minutes. (It’s important not to overcook the cookies, to make sure they stay soft and gooey.) Cool on a rack.
