1 cup molasses (Grandma's)
1 3/4 tsp. baking soda
1 cup yogurt or buttermilk
1/2 cup butter, melted
1 tsp. ginger
2 tsp. cinnamon (or 2 tsp. ground ginger)
1 tsp. salt
flour (enough to make a soft dough)

Add baking soda to molasses and beat thoroughly; add milk, butter, spices and flour (enough to allow mixture to drop easily from spoon).

Cover bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least one hour or overnight.

Toss 1/2 of the mixture onto a well-floured board, roll lightly to 1/4-inch in thickness. Cut with rounded cookie or biscuit cutter dipped in flour.

Spray or brush a cookie sheet with non-stick spray or vegetable oil. Place cookies onto cookie sheet leaving 3/4 inch between cookies. Bake in a preheated 375°F oven until lightly golden around edges (8-12 minutes).

Remove and cool on a wire rack. To keep batter from spreading, allow cookie sheets to cool between batches.

Makes about 3 dozen cookies, depending upon size.
