Ingredients

Scale

2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour

2 tsp ground ginger

1 tsp cinnamon

½ tsp ground cardamom

½ tsp ground cloves

¼ tsp black pepper

¼ tsp ground nutmeg

1 tsp baking soda

¼ tsp salt

¾ cup unsalted butter, softened

½ cup brown sugar

¼ cup granulated sugar (plus extra for rolling)

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.

In a bowl, whisk together flour, spices, baking soda, and salt.

In a separate bowl, cream butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Beat in egg, molasses, and vanilla.

Let cool on sheet 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.
