How to make White Chocolate Covered Ginger Cookies

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a medium bowl stir together flour, ginger, baking soda, cinnamon, and cloves. Set aside.
In a large bowl beat shortening for 30 seconds. Add the 2 cups granulated sugar; beat until combined.
Beat in eggs and molasses until combined.
Beat in half of flour mixture. Stir in remaining flour mixture.
Shape dough into about 1 1/2 to 2 inch balls and roll in 2 Tablespoons sugar.
Place balls 2 1/2 inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet.
Bake in preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until cookies are light brown and puffed. (Do not overbake or cookies will not be chewy.)
Cool on cookie sheet for 2 minutes. Transfer to wire racks to finish cooling.
Melt almond bark according to package directions.
Dip each cookie in almond bark (you can dip it as far in as you prefer) and then immediately top with sprinkles before the almond bark hardens.
Set cookie on wax paper or parchment paper and let almond bark harden.
These last for 5 days in an air-tight container or up to 30 days in an air-tight container in the freezer.
