Molasses Cookies (Lumberjacks)

This recipe comes from my husbands grandmother, who passed shortly after we were married.  I happen to LOVE molasses, so I was thrilled to get this recipe from her.

1 c sugar
1 c butter
cream together, then add:
1 c mild molasses
2 eggs

mix dry ingred. together before adding to creamed mixture
4 c flour
1 tsp baking soda
2 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp ginger

Chill dough until you can make balls easily.  Roll each ball in sugar before placing on cooking sheet (i tend to spray my cookie sheets before putting cookies on them to make it easier to get them off).
Bake at 350 for 12-15 minutes.
Cool on a wire rack, if you can wait long enough for them to cool off all the way :)
