    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease 2 cookie sheets.

    Beat 1 cup sugar, butter, molasses, and egg together in a mixing bowl using an electric mixer.

    Sift flour, baking soda, ginger, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, cloves, salt, and nutmeg together in a bowl. Beat into butter mixture until combined.

    Combine 1/8 cup sugar and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon in a shallow bowl. Roll cookie dough into 1-inch balls. Roll cookies in the sugar-cinnamon mixture to coat. Place on the prepared cookie sheet.

    Bake in the preheated oven until golden and edges are set, about 11 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool at least 5 minutes before serving or storing.



    Cook's Notes:

    No need to press the dough once you place them on the cookie sheet, as they spread perfectly while baking.

    This is my first recipe posted on here, I do not have exactly how much it yields yet. The yield listed is approximate.
