In a bowl, cream together the margarine and 1 cup Truvia® baking blend until smooth.

Beat in the egg and molasses until well blended. 

Combine the flour, ginger, cinnamon, baking soda and salt; stir into the molasses mixture to form a dough. Roll dough into 1 inch balls and place cookies 2 inches apart onto a greased cookie sheet.

Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven. Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
