Introduction
A healthy alternative to other not so wholesome cookies. I use white whole wheat flour that I get from local Amish bulk stores. King Arthur also makes a white whole wheat that you can find at larger stores. A healthy alternative to other not so wholesome cookies.

Ingredients
Whole Wheat Flour, 3 cup
Salt, .5 tsp
Baking Soda, .75 tsp
Ginger, ground, 1 tbsp
Cinnamon, ground, .5 tbsp
Cloves, ground, .5 tsp
Nutmeg, ground, .5 tsp
Butter, salted, .5 cup
Granulated Sugar, .5 cup
Egg, fresh, 1 large beaten
Molasses, .66 cup
Directions
Combine flour, salt, soda, and spices in a mixing bowl.
In another bowl cream butter and sugar. Add molasses (when measuring molasses always spray your cups with nonstick spray so you don't spend eternity cleaning them!) and the beaten egg. When well mixed add to dry ingredients. Form into two balls. Cover with plastic wrap or put in a baggie and chill at least two hours. I normally just make up a batch after dinner for the next day.
PREHEAT OVEN TO 350
Working with one half at a time, roll out on a well floured surface to no more than a quarter inch thick. If you want crisper cookies you will want them to be no more than 1/8th of an inch. Place on parchment paper (wax will work in a pinch) about an inch apart.
Bake 8-10 minutes. Makes about 45 cookies. My cookie cutter kids measure about three and a half inches tall by 2 at the arms.
