The dough needs to set up for at least 2 hours, so plan ahead.
In a large mixing bowl, add:

• 1/2 cup unsalted butter (soft not melted)
• 1/2 cup granulated white sugar. Mix butter and sugar until creamy.
• 1 large egg
• 2/3 cup unsulphured molasses (To prevent molasses from sticking to the measuring cup, first spray the cup with a non stick vegetable spray.) Mix in until well combined.
• 3 cups all purpose flour. Add slowly, mixing until fully incorporated.
• 1/4 teaspoons salt
• 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
• 2 teaspoons ground ginger
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves. Mix until all spices are fully incorporated.

Dough must set up for at least 2 hours. Cover bowl with plastic and place in refrigerator.
Preheat oven to 350.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough to a thickness of 1/4 inch. Cut out cookies. Any left over dough can be used to make circular ginger cookies.
Bake for 8-12 minutes.
