Ginger Cookies

These cookies are so easy and wonderful with a cup of tea, a good book and a roaring fire.  The aroma of ginger lingers in the home and reminds you of Autumn. (Unless there is someone in the house that can eat a dozen before you finish cleaning up)

Ginger Cookies
3/4 Cup Vegetable Oil (or Melted Margarine/Butter)
1 Cup Sugar
1 Egg
2 Cups Flour
2 teaspoons Baking Soda
1/2 teaspoon Ginger
1/2 teaspoon Salt
1/2 teaspoon Ground Cloves
1 teaspoon Cinnamon

Bake at 350 (F) for 10 minutes

For my own twist on things I add crystallized ginger in and on top of the cookie, I also don't use a full cup of sugar and add a bit more cinnamon.  This recipe is easy enough to add your own twist or strength of flavours.
