WWII OATMEAL MOLASSES COOKIES
This was my Grandmother's recipe from the 1940's. These cookies use molasses in place of brown sugar, which was one of the items rationed during the war (and harder to get than white sugar, they tell me). To me they're better than regular oatmeal cookies!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease cookie sheets.
- In a Dutch oven or large saucepan over medium heat, heat sorghum, stirring constantly. Stir in baking soda and remove from heat. Stir in the sugar and eggs; mix well. Combine the salt, cinnamon, allspice, cloves and nutmeg; mix into the sorghum mixture. Gradually stir in the flour until dough is stiff enough to roll out. The amount of flour may be adjusted.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough out to 1/4 inch thickness. Cut into desired shapes using cookie cutters. I like to cut them into squares with a pizza cutter. Place cookies 1 inch apart onto the prepared cookie sheets.
- Bake for 10 to 12 minutes in the preheated oven, until cookies are firm but not crisp. Remove from baking sheets immediately or they will stick. Cool on wire racks. When cool, place into an airtight container with the 1/2 apple for about a week, or until they are soft enough to bend. Frost with confectioners' sugar frosting if you like.

- Using a 2-tablespoon or 1-ounce scoop, portion the dough onto the baking sheets, 1/2 to 1 inch apart. If you like chewier cookies, leave the dough as is. If you like crispier cookies, press down with a spoon to flatten. Bake until the edges are brown, about 15 minutes. Cool before serving.

SORGHUM COOKIES
Sorghum syrup, a natural sweetener that was a 19th century staple, is making a comeback these days. Our family makes syrup from our homegrown sorghum cane. I use it in baking recipes like these soft, old-fashioned cookies. -Jennifer Kramer, Lynnville, Iowa

Tips:
- Use room temperature ingredients. This will help the cookies spread and bake evenly.
- Measure your flour correctly. Too much flour can make the cookies dry and crumbly. To measure flour correctly, spoon it into the measuring cup and level it off with a knife.
- Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing can make the cookies tough. Mix the dough just until the ingredients are combined.
- Chill the dough before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much in the oven.
- Bake the cookies until they are just set. Overbaking will make the cookies dry and crumbly. Bake the cookies until the edges are golden brown and the centers are just set.
