Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

In a large bowl, cream the shortening and sugar until light and fluffy. (If using a mixer, beat on high speed about 2 minutes.)

Step 4

Add the egg and beat well until combined. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl as needed.

Step 5

Sift the flour, soda, salt, and spices together.

Step 6

Add a little of the dried ingredients at a time to the creamed mixture. Optional: Cut in a few raisins at the same time.

Form dough into small balls (about the size of a golf ball) and roll in sugar. Place on an ungreased baking sheet, about 3 inches apart.

Step 8

Bake for 10 to 15 minutes or until browned and edges appear set.

Step 9

Let cool for five minutes on baking sheet before transferring.
