WOW!! 1938 Abergavenny Ginger Nuts Molasses Cookie Recipe - Old CookBook Show - Glen And Friends | Glen And Friends Cooking

1938 Abergavenny Ginger Nuts Molasses Cookie Recipe. This is a great ginger molasses cookie recipe! The cookbook says: "This is a very old recipe named after the Morgan farm in Herefordshire, England.".
Ingredients:
1 cup Orleans molasses
1 cup sugar
1 cup shortening (½ butter and ½ lard)
1 tsp salt
1 Tbsp ginger
2 tsp soda
½ cup warm water
*(all purpose flour, about 3-4 cups)
Candied ginger

Method:
*Preheat oven to 350ºF
Mix all in the order given.
Add enough flour to form a stiff dough.
mold with the hands into small balls.
Press into the top of each ball a strip of preserved ginger.
Bake on a greased *cooky sheet, one inch apart, in a moderate oven 10-15 minutes.

*This recipe gave no amount for flour, nor a baking temperature: so I have given some guidance.
*This recipe book uses several alternate spellings of the word 'cookie' - like the one used here: 'cooky'.
