INGREDIENTS

  • Dry Ingredients

    • 🥣 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
    • 🧂 2 teaspoons baking soda
    • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
    • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    • ½ teaspoon ground cloves
    • 🧂 ¼ teaspoon salt

  • Wet Ingredients

    • 1 cup packed brown sugar
    • ¾ cup vegetable oil
    • ¼ cup molasses
    • 🥚 1 egg
    • 2 tablespoons butter-flavored shortening (such as Crisco®)

  • Glaze Ingredients

    • 2 cups confectioners' sugar
    • 1 ½ teaspoons orange extract
    • 🥛 2 tablespoons milk
    • 🧂 ¼ teaspoon salt

STEPS

1

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

2

Mix flour, baking soda, ginger, cinnamon, cloves, and salt together in a large bowl.

3

Combine brown sugar, oil, molasses, egg, and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a large bowl; beat with an electric mixer until smooth. Pour over flour mixture; mix until a dough forms.

4

Roll dough into 1-inch balls and arrange on ungreased baking sheets.

5

Bake in the preheated oven until firm, 8 to 9 minutes. Let cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.

6

Place shortening in a large microwave-safe bowl. Heat in the microwave until melted, about 1 minute.

7

Stir confectioners' sugar and orange extract into the melted shortening. Mix in milk a little at a time until glaze runs smoothly off the end of a spoon. Add 1/4 teaspoon salt. Spoon glaze over cooled cookies.
