Ingredients (For 10-12 pieces)

• 150g all-purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 2 teaspoons ground ginger
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
• 50g unsalted butter, softened
• 50g brown sugar
• 50g molasses
• 1 small egg

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, ginger, cinnamon, and cloves until well combined.
3. In a separate larger bowl, cream together the softened butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Add the molasses and egg, and mix until smooth.
4. Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until a dough forms. If the dough feels too sticky, you can add a little more flour.
5. Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to a thickness of about 1/4 inch. Use cookie cutters in various shapes to cut out the cookies. Place them onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them apart.
6. Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for about 8-10 minutes, or until lightly golden brown around the edges. Remove from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

May these cookies bring you warmth, joy, and the true spirit of Christmas. Happy baking and happy holidays!
