These are the best gingerbread boy cookies I’ve ever eaten. They have a nice light flavor with a hint of orange.
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups white sugar
- 1 cup butter, softened
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons dark corn syrup
- 1 ½ tablespoons orange zest
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking soda
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- ½ teaspoon ground cloves
- ½ teaspoon salt
Directions
Step 1
Cream sugar and butter together in a large bowl. Add egg and mix well. Mix in dark corn syrup and orange zest. Add flour, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, and salt; mix until well combined. Wrap dough in plastic and chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours to overnight.
Step 2
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease cookie sheets.
Step 3
Roll dough out on a lightly floured surface to 1/4 inch thickness. Cut into desired shapes using cookie cutters. Place cookies 1 inch apart on the prepared cookie sheets.
Step 4
Bake in the preheated oven until cookies are firm and lightly toasted on the edges, 10 to 12 minutes.
