Difficulty: 3 (1=easiest :: hardest=5)
Serves/Makes: 36
Ingredients:
1 cup light molasses
1 cup butter or margarine
4 3/4 cups all-purpose flour, sifted
1 teaspoon double-acting baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon soda
2 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon clove
2 1/2 teaspoons ground ginger
2 teaspoons ground nutmeg
1 cup dark brown sugar, firmly packed
1 egg
Directions:
Heat molasses slowly in a saucepan large enough for mixing cookies. Remove from heat, add butter (or margarine) and stir until melted. Cool. Sift together the next eight ingredients. Mix with brown sugar and stir into molasses mixture. Add egg. Chill 1 to 2 hours or until stiff enough to handle. Roll 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick on a lightly floured board. Shape with a gingerbread man cookie cutter. Place on a lightly greased cookie sheet and bake in a preheated moderate oven (350 degrees) for 12 to 15 minutes. Decorate as desired. Use 10X sugar and a little water for icing.
