This is one of my sister's favorite recipes! It's really easy and tastes like Grandma's gingersnap cookies. Plus, they'll make your house smell like Christmas!
Gingersnap bars
¾ cup shortening
2 cups flour
1 cup sugar
2 tsp. soda
1 tsp. cinnamon
½ tsp. cloves
½ tsp. ginger
½ tsp. salt
¼ cup molasses
1 egg
2 T sugar
Preheat oven to 375°F. Grease 15x10” jelly roll pan.
In large saucepan, melt shortening; cool 5 minutes. Add remaining ingredients, except 2 tablespoons sugar. Mix well.
Press into bottom of prepared pan. Sprinkle with remaining sugar. Bake at 375°F for 10 to 12 minutes. Do not overbake. Let stand 5 minutes; cut into bars. Cool completely.
Makes about 48 bars.
