6 cups of flour
1tsp. baking soda
½ tsp. of baking powder
1cup of unsalted butter
1 cup of dark brown sugar packed
4tsp. of ground ginger
4tsp. cinnamon
1 ½ tsp. ground cloves
1 ½ tsp. salt
2 large eggs

In a large bowl combine flour, baking powder and soda and set aside. Cream butter and sugar together. Add spices, salt, eggs, and molasses. Mix in flour slowly. Chill dough over night. Heat oven to 350 degrees, roll dough out to desired thickness and bake for 8-10 minutes. Make sure when rolling dough out you have enough flour on your surface so that dough does not stick.
