Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups all purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 Tablespoon cinnamon
  • 1 Tablespoon ginger
  • ¼ teaspoon allspice
  • ¼ teaspoon cloves
  • 12 Tablespoons butter
  • ½ cup mild molasses
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 cup powdered sugar

Instructions
 

  • Cream butter and sugar until fluffy. Add molasses, egg, and vanilla then beat again until fluffy. Mixture may look curdled at first—just keep beating.
  • Mix dry ingredients, then add to butter mixture, mixing on low until just combined.
  • Form into 1 1 /2 inch balls, then chill for an hour.
  • After chilling, roll each cookie ball in powdered sugar, making sure to coat well (see note). Bake at 375 for 9-10 minutes

Notes

Note: a good coating of powdered sugar is important for the final look of the cookie, so be very generous.
