Mix in the flour, soda, and spices thoroughly. Roll into balls and into granulated sugar and bake on greased cookie sheet at 350 degrees for approximately 10 minutes. Cool slightly and remove from cookie sheet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If dough is too sticky, chill first before rolling into balls. Check oven after 8 minutes as all ovens bake differently. And if you are going to all of the trouble to make homemade cookies, go ahead and make a double batch!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Enjoy!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I had planned to make these cookies at Christmas time but since we got together so early in December to celebrate, I ran out of time.
