Gingerbread recipe or how to make gingerbread men?

 

Christmas is coming!!! Why don’t you make gingerbread men? I show you a delicious recipe, and this is what you need to make them:

-1/2 cup margarine

-1/2 cup sugar

-1/2 cup molasses

-1 egg yolk

-2 cups sifted all-purpose flour

-1/2 teaspoon salt

-1/2 teaspoon baking powder

-1/2 teaspoon baking soda

-1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

-1 teaspoon ground cloves

-1 teaspoon Ginger

-1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg

 

Preparation of the dough:

  1. In a large bowl, cream together the margarine and sugar until smooth. Stir in molasses and egg yolk. Combine the flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, cloves, ginger, and nutmeg; blend into the molasses mixture until smooth. Cover, and chill for at least one hour.
  2. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough out to 1/4 inch thickness. Cut into desired shapes with cookie cutters. Place cookies 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheets.
  3. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven, until firm. Remove from cookie sheets to cool on wire racks. Frost or decorate when cool.
