Molasses-Cinnamon Dog Cookies

1/2 c. molasses
2 T. honey
1/2 c. water
1/4 c. vegatable oil
3 c. plain flour
1 t. baking soda
1/2 t. cinnamon
1/2 t. ground cloves
1 T. ground ginger

In a mixing bowl, combine molasses, honey, water, and oil. In another bowl, mix flour, baking soda, cinnamon, cloves, and ginger. Stir flour mixture slowly into molasses mixture, mixing well with wooden spoon. Divide dough in half and shape each peice into a ball. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for several hours. On a lightly floured surface, roll our dough 1/4" thick. Cut into gingerbread men (or dogs) and transfer onto oiled baking sheet. Press raisins for eyes and buttons. Bake at 350 for ten min. or until firm and lightly browned around edges.
