2 cups gluten-free flour, mixture (flour or starches ONLY)

2 teaspoons ground ginger
1 teaspoon ground cloves
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1 pinch salt
1/2 cup butter
1/3 cup molasses
1/2 cup dark brown sugar
1 egg

Preparation

In a bowl cream together butter and sugar until smooth.
Add molasses and egg and mis until smooth.
I use my electric beater for this part.
In a separate bowl sift together ALL dry ingredients.
Mix dry into wet a little at a time until all combined.
Refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
Remove from bowl and knead into a ball on a floured surface.
Roll to about 1/4 inch (5mm) and cut using your favourite cookie cutters. Yield depends on the cookie cutters used.
Bake at 350 for 15-17 minutes.
Remove to cooling rack. They will be fragile.
Ice as desired with hard setting icing.
