Easy Gingerbread Cookies Recipe

Ingredients

1

                        roll (16.5 oz) refrigerated Pillsbury™ Sugar Cookie Dough

2

tablespoons mild molasses

1/3

cup all-purpose flour

3/4

teaspoon ground cinnamon

3/4

teaspoon ground ginger

1/4

teaspoon ground allspice

1/4

teaspoon ground cloves

Preparation

In large bowl, crumble cookie dough; stir in molasses. Add remaining ingredients; mix thoroughly with hands.(DO NOT EAT RAW COOKIE DOUGH AFTER COMBINING WITH FLOUR.)

Divide dough in half; form into 2 disks, and wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate 2 hours or until thoroughly chilled.

Heat oven to 375°F. On floured surface, roll 1 dough disk 1/4 inch thick. Cut with floured 2 1/2- to 3-inch gingerbread boy or girl cookie cutters. On ungreased cookie sheet, place cutouts 2 inches apart. Repeat for remaining dough, rerolling scraps as necessary.

Bake 7 to 9 minutes or until cookies are set and light golden brown around edges. Cool on cookie sheet 3 minutes; remove to cooling rack to cool completely, about 20 minutes.
