MOLASSES COOKIES
Makes about 3 dozen cookies

1/2 cup butter
1 cup sugar plus more for the top of cookies
1 egg
1/4 cup molasses
1 tsp. baking sode
1/4 tsp. salt
1 tsp. ground ginger
1/2 tsp. ground cloves
1 1/2 cups flour
1 cup rolled oats

Preheat oven to 375°. Beat together butter, sugar, egg, and molasses. Mix in flour, baking soda, salt, ginger and cloves. Add rolled oats. Scoop tablespoons of dough onto cookie sheets. Place some sugar into small bowl. Dip the bottom of a glass in the sugar and press down on each scoop of dough until it is about 1/4" thick, dipping the glass in sugar each time. Bake about 12 minutes.

This is the recipe in my mom's cookbook; I would give credit to the person who made it but I don't know who it is.
