Gingerbread Cookies

1 c butter or margarine, softened
1 1/2 c sugar
3 Tbls molasses
1 egg
2 Tbls water or milk (I usually do 1 Tbls of each)
MIX
3 1/4 c flour
2 tsp soda
1/2 tsp salt
2 tsp cinnamon
1 1/2 tsp ginger
1 tsp cloves
MIX

Refrigerate covered dough for at least a couple of hours. Then roll out on a
floured surface, and cut out cookies. Bake at 350 for 5-7 minutes. (Dough
will look golden around edges. If you cook too long, the cookies will taste
fine, but they'll be crunchy instead of soft.)

(just got this recipe from Tammie Springer. She made these cookies and they were absolutely delish!!!! I think they're even better than Nauvoo's Skovil Bakery gingerbread cookies)
