I have been searching for the perfect soft ginger cookie for a long time now . . . and I think that I have finally found it! These are seriously so good. 
2 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 tsp ground ginger
1 tsp baking soda
3/4 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground cloves
1/4 tsp salt
3/4 cup margarine, softened
1 cup white sugar
1 egg
1 Tbsp water
1/4 c molasses
2 Tbsp sugar
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Sift flour, ginger, baking soda, cinnamon, cloves, and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, cream together margarine and 1 cup white sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in egg, then stir in the water and molasses. Shape dough into walnut-sized balls, roll in sugar. Place 2″ apart on ungreased cookie sheet. Flatten slightly.
Bake 8-10 minutes. Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before removing to wire rack.
Enjoy!
