ready in:
  1-2 hrs

ingredients

2/3 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup fancy molasses
3 ounces milk chocolate, chopped and melted
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup cocoa powder
1 tablespoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
1 pinch salt

directions

Line 2 rimless baking sheets with parchment paper or grease. Set aside.

In a bowl, beat butter with sugar until fluffy. Beat in molasses and chocolate.

In a separate bowl, whisk flour, cocoa, ginger, cinnamon, baking soda, cloves and salt. Stir into butter mixture in 2 additions. Divide in half and shape into discs. Wrap and refrigerate until firm, around 30 minutes.

On lightly floured waxed paper, roll out each disc into 1/8-inch thickness. Using floured 1-1/2-inch heart-shaped cutter, cut into shapes, re-rolling and cutting scraps.

Place 1 inch apart on prepared pans. Refrigerate until firm, about 30 minutes.

Bake in top and bottom thirds of 375 degrees F oven, rotating and switching pans halfway through, until bottoms are lightly browned and tops are firm to the touch, about 7 minutes.

Let cool on pans for 5 minutes. Transfer to racks and let cool completely.
