Gingerbread Cookies

I know this is so past the season but I wanted to get this recipe on here for my reference next year. Then I can get rid of the magazine. It comes from the Family Circle magazine.

Ingredients

2 3/4 cups flour
3/4 tsp. baking soda
1 tbsp. ground ginger
1 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp. ground cloves
1/4 tsp. salt
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, softened
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1 large egg
1/2 cup original molasses

1. In a medium-size bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, ginger, cinnamon, cloves and salt. Set aside.

2. In a large bowl, beat butter and sugar until smooth. Beat in egg, then molasses. Stir flour mixture into butter mixture. Divide dough into 2 halves. Wrap; chill 2 hours.

3. Heat oven to 350 degrees. On a well floured surface, roll half of dough to 1/8 inch thickness. Cut shapes with assorted-size gingerbread cookie cutters; transfer to ungreased baking sheets. Reroll scraps; cut. Repeat with rest of dough.

4. Bake at 350 degrees for 13 minutes. Transfer cookies to racks to cool.
