  • ¾ teaspoon ground ginger
  • ½ teaspoon ground cloves
  • 2 teaspoons baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¾ cup vegetable shortening
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 1 egg
  • ½ cup molasses

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or a silicone liner. Whisk together the flour, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, baking soda, and salt in a bowl until thoroughly combined.
  • In a large bowl, mash vegetable shortening and sugar together until smooth and creamy; mix in the egg and molasses.
