Preparation
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
Lightly grease several baking sheets with vegetable oil spray.
In a medium bowl, stir together flour, baking powder, baking soda,
ginger, cinnamon and cloves. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, with and electric mixer set on medium speed,
beat together oil, molasses, sugar, egg and vanilla extract. Beat in half of dry ingredients
just until mixed. Using a large wooden spoon, stir in remaining dry ingredients just until
evenly incorporated. Batter will be stiff.
Divide dough in half; wrap each portion in plastic wrap and freeze for
30 minutes. Using your hands, roll each portion of dough into 25 1-inch (3cm) balls, dip into
sugar and place 2 inches (5cm) apart on cookie sheets.
Bake for 10 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove from baking
sheets; cool on wire racks. Store in airtight container.
