These homemade treats are a cross between a gingerbread and molasses cookie, made as big as saucers, dressed each with a single raisin in its center.
Robin Mather Special to the Arizona Daily Star When I was small, we were taught to address my Grandmother Mather’s women friends as “Aunt First-Name.” We knew her friends well because we saw them often. All were widows; they had been friends since before World War II.
People are also reading… Aunt Dorothy was a redoubtable battleship of a woman. Short and rotund, her iron-gray hair always tightly crimped into a perm, she was quick to correct an errant child, and often not too kind about it. She lived two doors west of my grandmother, but we understood that we were not welcome to visit unless specifically invited. If invited, we were not to sit unless she offered, and we were most definitely not to touch anything.
Gertrude understood that, like a hummingbird, a busy child’s tiny tummy needs frequent refueling. Somehow these days, many adults seem to forget that. Maybe we all should take a leaf from Gertrude’s book.These big cookies bring together the best of both gingerbread and molasses cookies. Aunt Gertrude always placed a raisin in the center of each cookie before baking, but you don’t have to do so.
Sift together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, mustard powder, cloves and salt. Add half the flour mixture to the butter mixture and beat for 30 seconds. Add the coffee and beat for about 30 seconds. Add the remaining flour mixture and beat for 30 seconds longer. These short beating times are simply to combine the ingredients; don’t overbeat, or you’ll develop the gluten in the flour and the cookies will be tough.
