SOFT MOLASSES CUTOUT COOKIES
I received this recipe years ago, when my husband and I managed a retirement home. We'd always put out homemade cookies for morning and afternoon coffee, and these were the first to disappear.

JOHN'S ROLL-OUT MOLASSES COOKIES
A coworker of mine gave me this recipe. There isn't one exactly like it on Zaar, in that it uses allspice and has no eggs. It is a dense, spicy cookie that is rolled out and cut into shapes. Cooking time includes time to chill dough. I have halved the amounts in the original recipe because it made SO many cookies; hence the weird measurement for the shortening. It was originally 1/3 c. shortening, and this is the best I could come up with for getting half of that. Be sure not to roll them thinner than 1/4 - 1/2 inch (nor overbake) so that they keep their good, dense, kinda chewy texture.

Steps:
- Mix together shortening, molasses and brown sugar. Stir in 1/4 cup cold water.
- Mix together the flour, salt and spices. Add to molasses mixture.
- Dissolve soda in 1.5 teaspoons cold water. Stir it into the above mixture.
- Gather up dough into a ball; on waxed paper, pat into a disk. Wrap up. Chill for at least an hour.
- Roll out between 1/4-inch and 1/2-inch thick. I thought 1/2-inch was a bit too thick, but it's up to you. Cut into shapes, specifically gingerbread men or bears. Gather up scraps, pat into a ball, reroll and cut into shapes, etc., until you have used most of your dough.
- On lightly greased or sprayed cookie sheets, bake at 350 degrees for 15-18 minutes.
- These swell a little during cooking, so be sure to leave some space between them on the cookie sheets. Also, they taste better the day after baking when the spices have had a chance to meld with each other.

Steps:
- If you want to use vegetable shortening instead of lard, increase the amount by 1/2 cup I have never done this.
- (I add cinnamon too).
- Cream lard, sugars; add eggs, salt, spices, and baking soda.
- Add molasses and beat well, add water slowly.
- Stir in enough flour to make a dough stiff enough to roll.
- (I chill dough for a few hours) Roll 1/4 inch thick (or thicker if you want cake-y cookies) and you may sprinkle with extra sugar.
- Cut cookies, place on ungreased cookie sheets, bake in a 400 oven for 8 to 10 minutes.
- They are done when you can press down with a finger and leave a dent.
- Cool on wire racks.
- I prefer to gauge doneness by looking at the underside of the cookie and seeing how brown it is.
- If you want a cake-y cookie, don't let the cookies get dark browned, you want them golden, dark tan.
- Baking time will vary with the size of your cookies too.
- Small ones take a lot less time to bake.
