4 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
4 teaspoons ground ginger
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt

1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Whisk flour, ginger, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt together in a bowl.

Beat butter in a large bowl until creamy. Gradually beat in 2 cups sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in molasses. Stir 1/2 of the flour mixture into butter mixture; add remaining flour mixture and stir until dough is just-combined.
