Try a large diaphragm dynamic mic like the Shure SM7 or old Beyer RE20 which take fast transient high dB sounds well. Put a pop filter in front of the mic and either compress the signal for a smoother envelope or gate it just to get the attack of the clap.

I've tried clapping into mics and cant get consistent results -- the burst of air goes in all different directions and I could never get a consistent sound into the mic at all. But if you can solve _that_ problem, I think gnd's idea should work OK.
