Step 1

Preheat oven to 350º. Sift together flour, ginger, baking soda, cinnamon, cloves and salt. Set aside.

In a large bowl, cream butter and 1 cup sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg, then stir in the water and molasses. Gradually stir the sifted ingredients into the molasses mixture. Shape dough into walnut sized balls, and roll them in the remaining 2 tbsp sugar. Place cookies 2" apart onto ungreased cookie sheet and flatten slightly.
