How to make old fashioned molasses cookies:

Blend butter, eggs, brown sugar and molasses together. Sift together flour, soda, salt, cloves, cinnamon and ginger. Add to mixture. Chill at least 1 hour.

Roll dough into balls the size of walnuts, then roll in granulated sugar. Put on greased cookie sheet and bake 10 to 15 minutes in 350° oven. May place 1/2 walnut on top of each cookie before baking. (Dough can sit overnight.)

Hint: Place a piece of bread in cookie jar with cookies. Cookies stay soft and chewy while bread gets stale.
