INSTRUCTIONS
1. In
a large bowl using a hand mixer, beat butter, brown sugar, and molasses until
fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add egg and vanilla and beat until combined.
2. In
a medium bowl, whisk flour, spices, baking soda, and salt until combined. With
the mixer on low, gradually add dry ingredients to wet ingredients until dough
just comes together. (Do not overmix!)
3.
Divide
dough in half and create two discs. Wrap each in plastic wrap and chill until
firm, about 2 to 3 hours.
4. Preheat
oven to 350° and line two large baking sheets with parchment paper. Place one
disc of dough on a lightly floured surface and roll until 1/4" thick. Cut
out gingerbread men with a 3" wide cutter and transfer to baking sheets.
5.
Bake
until slightly puffed and set, 9 to 10 minutes, depending on the size of your
cookie cutters. Let cool on baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to
a cooling rack to cool completely.
6.
Repeat
with remaining disc of dough. Decorate with icing and sprinkles as desired.
