Ingredients
Instructions
- In a small mixing bowl, cream the butter,brown sugar, and pudding mix. Beat in egg. In a separate bowl combine the flour, ginger, baking soda,and cinnamon,and gradually add to the creamed mixture. Cover and refrigerate over night. (I have never refrigerated and they turn out just fine. Dough might be easier to work with if cold however! )
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough to 1/8inch thickness. cut with Gingerbread cookie cutter dipped in flour. Place one inch apart on ungreased baking sheets. Bake at 350 degrees for 8 to 10 minutes or until edges are golden brown. Remove with spatula to wire racks for cooling.
- yields 1and 1/2 dozen when using 5 inch gingerbread man cookie cutter.
- In another small bowl, combine confectioner's sugar and milk , mix until smooth and decorate as desired. Regular store bought icings of all colors and sugar sprinkles work very well also.
