1 cup Crosby's Molasses
1 large Egg

In a large bowl cream sugar and butter.  Add molasses and egg and blend well.

Combine dry ingredients and add to the creamed mixture, alternation with the milk.  

Scrap dough onto a lightly flowered surface and gather into a ball.  Flatten into a disk, wrap and refrigerate for an hour or overnight.  (Add up to 1/4 cup additional flour if the dough is too soft to handle). 

Preheat oven to 350 and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper. 

On a lightly floured surface, roll dough to 1/4 inch thick and cut into rounds.

These cookies pair perfectly with a hot cup of tea or a silky London fog
