  • 3/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar

  • 3 tablespoons margarine, softened

  • 1/2 cup molasses

  • 1/4 cup water

Cream brown sugar and margarine; add molasses and water, beating with an electric mixer set at medium speed until well blended. Combine flour and next 5 ingredients; gradually add to creamed mixture, beating well. Gently press mixture into a ball; wrap in heavy-duty plastic wrap and place in freezer for 30 minutes.
