Chewy Gingersnaps from Jaelyn

In a mixer:

1 1/2 cups soft butter
1/2 cup molasses
2 eggs
2 cups brown sugar

When creamed; add:
4 1/2 - 5 cups flour
4 tsp. baking soda
2 tsp. ginger
2 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp cloves
1 tsp salt
Dough will be sticky, but should not stick to your fingers. If cookies turn out too flat, add more flour.

Roll dough into 1" balls and then roll in white sugar. Bake at 375 for 8-10 minutes. Cookies should just crack on top.

Makes about 6 dozen cookies. (Which sounds like a lot till you see how fast they disappear.!)
