DO NOT preheat oven - dough must chill
Melt butter and mix in sugar. Let mixture cool.
Add egg(s). Add soda, molasses, salt, and ginger. Sift it
thoroughly. Add flour and mix in. Chill the dough for at
least 1 hour.
When dough has chilled, preheat oven to 375 degrees,
rack in the middle position.

Roll dough into walnut-sized balls with your hands. Roll the
dough balls in white sugar. (Just dump them in the bowl
with the sugar and shake the bowl gently to coat them.)
Place them on greased cookie sheets, 12 to a standard
sheet. Flatten them with a spatula.

Bake at 375 degrees for 10 to 12 minutes or until nicely
browned. Cool on cookie sheets for no more than 1 minute,
and then remove to wire rack to finish cooling (if you leave
these on the cookie sheets for too long, they'll stick)

Tip to measure molasses First spray the inside of a
measuring cup with pam so that the molasses won't stick to
the sides of the cup.
