Serving Size: 18

Cooking Time: 20 minutes

Ingredients

• 3.5 Cups all-purpose flour, divided
• 1 Teaspoon baking soda
• 1 Teaspoon baking powder
• 2 Teaspoons ground ginger
• 1 Teaspoon ground cloves
• 1 Teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1 Teaspoon ground allspice
• 1 Cup brown sugar, packed

Steps

1. In a medium bowl, mix together 2 cups of flour, baking soda, and baking powder.
2. In a separate bowl, mix the remaining 1 ½ cups of flour with ginger, cloves, cinnamon, and allspice.
3. Layer the flour-baking powder mixture, brown sugar, and flour-spice mixture into a 1-quart wide-mouth canning jar, packing firmly after each layer.
4. Seal the jar with a lid and attach a tag with the following instructions:
• Empty the jar of gingerbread cookie mix into a large mixing bowl; stir to blend. Mix in 1/2 cup softened butter, 3/4 cup molasses, and a beaten egg to form a stiff dough. Cover dough and refrigerate for 1 hour.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and lightly grease a cookie sheet.
• Roll out dough on a floured surface to a thickness of 1/4 inch. Cut into shapes with a cookie cutter and place on the prepared cookie sheet, spacing them 1 inch apart.
• Bake in the preheated oven until just firm, about 10 to 12 minutes. Cool completely, then decorate as desired.

This mix can be stored in a cool, dark place for 3-6 months, making it a perfect make-ahead gift.
