Ruby’s Chewy Molasses Cookies

.................................

1 cup sugar*

1/2 cup shortening

2 cups flour

1 1/2 teaspoons soda

1 cup oats

1 egg

1/2 cup sorghum molasses

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon vanilla

Combine all ingredients in a large bowl and mix well.

Drop by teaspoonfuls onto a greased baking sheet.

Bake at 375 degrees for 12 minutes.

*Ruby would have used less sugar and more sorghum molasses due to the fact that sugar was rationed.

Author’s Note

....................

Sweet Southern Christmas is very special to me, because I wrote it with the participation of my grandmother. Just like the heroine in the story, she worked as a WOW during World War II at the Arkansas Ordnance Plant in Jacksonville. That’s where she met my grandfather and where their real life love story—one that would last more than sixty-five years—began. When I created Ruby and Cliff, I knew I wanted to use some of the stories from my grandparents’ courtship, and it was such fun to blend a bit of truth into the fictional story.
