1/2 c. molasses
2 T. honey
1/2 c. water
1/4 c. vegatable oil
3 c. plain flour
1 t. baking soda
1/2 t. cinnamon
1/2 t. ground cloves
1 T. ground ginger
In a mixing bowl, combine molasses, honey, water, and oil. In another
bowl, mix flour, baking soda, cinnamon, cloves, and ginger. Stir flour
mixture slowly into molasses mixture, mixing well with wooden spoon.
Divide dough in half and shape each peice into a ball. Wrap in plastic
wrap and refrigerate for several hours. On a lightly floured surface, roll
our dough 1/4" thick. Cut into gingerbread men (or dogs) and transfer onto
oiled baking sheet. Press raisins for eyes and buttons. Bake at 350 for
ten min. or until firm and lightly browned around edges.
