Cry Baby Molasses Cookies

---

Again another one of my grandma clark's recipes our family loves. it is at almost every family gathering. i have used 'store bought' icing before and it works ok but i prefer to make my own powdered sugar icing. this is a large recipe and my servings are a guess as my family eats the cookies before i can count. i often half this recipe to make a more manageable number of cookies.
