Ingredients
  • Nonstick cooking spray
  • 1/3 cup  margarine, softened
  • 2/3 cup  packed brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon  baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon  ground ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon  ground cinnamon
  • 1 egg
  • 1/4 cup  dark molasses

  • 1/2 cup  whole wheat flour
  • 1/4 cup  granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon  ground cinnamon
Directions

1. Spray cookie sheet with nonstick spray; set aside.

2. In a large mixing bowl beat the margarine with an electric mixer on medium to high speed for 30 seconds. Add the brown sugar, baking soda, ginger, and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon; beat until combined.
