Spiced gingerbread boy cookies with clove, cinnamon, and orange zest, can be molded into fun shapes.
Ingredients:
  • 1.5 cups white sugar
  • 1 cup butter, softened
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tablespoons dark corn syrup
  • 1.5 tablespoons orange zest
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground cloves
Instructions:
  • In a large bowl, create a creamy mixture by combining sugar and butter. Blend in an egg until fully incorporated. Stir in dark corn syrup and orange zest. Add flour, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, and salt, mixing until thoroughly combined. Wrap the dough in plastic and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
  • Preheat your oven to a toasty 375°F (190°C) and grease your cookie sheets.
  • On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to 1/4 inch thickness. Use cookie cutters to create your favorite shapes. Arrange cookies 1 inch apart on the lined baking sheets.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes until cookies are firm and lightly toasted on the edges.
