Title: Holiday Gingerbread Cookies
Categories: Cookies, Christmas
Yield: 24 Cookies
3/4 c Molasses, light or dark
3/4 c Margarine (1-1/2 sticks)
3/4 c Sugar, brown firmly packed
3 2/3 c Flour, all-purpose
2 ts Ginger, ground
2 ts Cinnamon, ground
1 ts Baking Powder
1/2 ts Baking Soda
1/2 ts Nutmeg, ground

In 3-quart saucepan over medium heat, heat molasses, margarine and
brown sugar until mixture boils, stirring occasionally to blend well.

Heat oven to 350F. Divide dough in half. On floured surface, roll
