Ingredients
Oops! Something went wrong. Our team is working on it.
2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon ground cloves
¼ teaspoon salt
1 cup packed brown sugar
¾ cup vegetable oil
¼ cup molasses
1 egg
¼ teaspoon salt
Glaze:
2 tablespoons butter-flavored shortening (such as Crisco®)
2 cups confectioners' sugar
1 ½ teaspoons orange extract
2 tablespoons milk
¼ teaspoon salt
Directions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Mix flour, baking soda, ginger, cinnamon, cloves, and salt together in a large bowl.
Combine brown sugar, oil, molasses, egg, and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a large bowl; beat with an electric mixer until smooth. Pour over flour mixture; mix until a dough forms.
Roll dough into 1-inch balls and arrange on ungreased baking sheets.
Bake in the preheated oven until firm, 8 to 9 minutes. Let cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.
Place shortening in a large microwave-safe bowl. Heat in the microwave until melted, about 1 minute.
Stir confectioners' sugar and orange extract into the melted shortening. Mix in milk a little at a time until glaze runs smoothly off the end of a spoon. Add 1/4 teaspoon salt. Spoon glaze over cooled cookies.
