Ingredients:





   1/2 c  Sugar


   1/2 c  Vegetable oil or melted


          -shortening


   1/2 c  Molasses


     2 c  Flour


     2 ts Ginger


   1/2 ts Cinnamon


   1/4 ts Salt






 In a large bowl with a fork, stir together sugar, oil, and molasses until


 well combined.


 


 Add 1 3/4 cups flour, ginger, cinnamon, and salt. Stir until mixture is


 well combined. With hands, knead in as much of remaining flour to make a


 stiff yet manageable dough.


 


 Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Between pieces of waxed paper, roll out dough


 1/4-inch thick. Cut out cookies or gingerbread house pieces. Place 2 inches


 apart on lightly greased cookie sheets and bake 10 to 12 minutes or until


 edges begin to brown. Cool several minutes on baking sheets and then remove


 to cooling racks to cool completely.
