Guest guest Posted August 2, 2008 Report Share Posted August 2, 2008 Dancing Deer cookie clones. MOLASSES CLOVE COOKIES 3 c sifted all-purpose flour 2 tsp baking powder 2 c sugar 1/2 tsp salt 1 tsp ground cloves 1 tsp ground ginger 1/2 c melted butter 2 eggs 1/2 c molasses 1/2 c quick cooking rolled oats Preheat oven to 375°. In large mixing bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, salt, cloves, ginger and sugar. Beat eggs and add to flour along with melted butter and molasses. Using electric mixer, blend until smooth. With a large spoon stir in rolled oats. Drop by teaspoonfuls 1 " apart onto ungreased cookie sheet. Bake 10 minutes. Makes 6 dozen cookies or My favorite cookie, especially great when the snow is falling in big puffy flakes and it's a do-nothing Saturday afternoon in those bleak mid-winter months... If anyone is familiar with the Dancing Deer Baking Company's ginger-clove cookies, these are very close to them. MOLASSES COOKIES 4 cups all-purpose flour 1/2 teaspoon salt 2 1/4 teaspoons baking soda 2 teaspoons ground ginger 1 1/4 teaspoons ground cloves 1 1/4 teaspoons cinnamon 1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter, softened 1/2 cup vegetable shortening 3 1/2 cups sugar 1/2 cup unsulfured molasses 2 large eggs Preheat oven to 325°. and lightly grease 2 large baking sheets. In a large bowl whisk together flour, salt, baking soda, ginger, cloves, and cinnamon. In another large bowl with an electric mixer beat together butter, shortening, and 3 cups sugar until light and fluffy and beat in molasses. Beat in eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Gradually beat in flour mixture and combine well. In a small shallow bowl put remaining 1/2 cup sugar. Form dough into 2-inch balls and roll in sugar. On baking sheets arrange balls about 4 inches apart and flatten slightly with bottom of a glass dipped in sugar. Bake cookies in batches in middle of the oven 15 minutes, or until puffed and golden. (Cookies should be soft.) Transfer cookies with a metal spatula to racks to cool. Makes about 25 cookies.

Guest guest Posted August 2, 2008 Report Share Posted August 2, 2008 I printed this page. If it's not the cookie as a clone they both sound very good to me. I like cookies with molasses, ginger and other spices in them. They always remind me of winter.

Guest guest Posted August 4, 2008 Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 Thanks, guys for the additional recipe.? I think what I'll have to do is just play trial and error until I come up with something that's close.? I dream about these cookies, they're that good.? LOL I printed this page. If it's not the cookie as a clone they both sound very good to me. I like cookies with molasses, ginger and other spices in them. They always remind me of winter.
