Step 1

In a large bowl, combine the first nine ingredients. Divide into three batches; store in airtight containers in a cool dry place up to 6 months. Yield: 3 batches (9 cups total).

To prepare cookies: Preheat oven to 375°. In a large bowl, cream butter until light and fluffy. Add egg and molasses; mix well. Add 3 cups cookie mix; beat until smooth.

Shape into 1-in. balls and roll in sugar. Place 2 in. apart on ungreased baking sheets. Bake 9-11 minutes or until the edges are firm and the surface cracks. Cool on wire racks.
