Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 cups sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 4 cups cake flour , sifted
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp ginger
  • 1 tsp nutmeg
  • 1 1/2 tsp cinnamon

Directions:

  1. Cream together the butter and sugar and beat until light and fluffy.
  2. Add eggs and vanilla to the butter mixture and mix well.
  3. Sift together dry ingredients and spices. Add this to the creamed mixture alternately with the milk until it forms a stiff dough.
  4. Form into a log and wrap in wax paper. Chill for a minimum of 2 hours to overnight.
  5. Dust rolling mat with a bit of cake flour and take a portion of the dough log and roll out to 1/4 inch thickness. Using the cookie cutter design of your choice, cut out cookies and place on a lightly greased (or use parchment paper) baking tray.
  6. Bake at 375F for 8-10 minutes. Allow to cool 5 minutes before removing to a cooling rack to cool completely.
  7. Optional - lightly frost or ice the cookies to your liking. I also love these cookies just as is so the spices shine through.
