Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter until it is light and fluffy. Add the sugar. Beat well.
Add molasses and egg. Beat on medium speed.
Add ginger, cinnamon, salt, baking powder, baking soda and flour to a small bowl.
Gradually add the flour mixture to the creamy butter mixture. Mix well.
Chill the dough for at least an hour.
Roll the dough into 1 inch balls. Roll the dough balls in raw sugar - raw sugar is just a minimally processed sugar!
Cook 6 cookies at a time on the cookie sheet at 375 degrees for 9 to 10 minutes. Cool on a wire rack. Store in an airtight container.
