Servings: persons

2-1/4 cups Flour
1-1/2 teaspoon Ground Ginger
1 teaspoon Baking Soda
3/4 teaspoons Ground Cinnamon
1/4 teaspoons Ground Cloves
1/8 teaspoons Nutmeg, Freshly Ground
1/4 teaspoons Salt
1-1/2 stick Unsalted Butter, Softened At Room Temperature
1 cup Dark Brown Sugar (packed)
1 whole Large Egg
1/4 cups Molasses
1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
1 cup Powdered Sugar
1 Tablespoon Bourbon
3 Tablespoons Cream Or Milk, Or More If Needed
1 teaspoon Vanilla Bean Paste Or Extract (or Seeds From 1/2 Vanilla Bean, If You Have It)
1 pinch Salt

1
In a large bowl mix together dry ingredients (flour though salt). Using a standing mixer or large bowl and hand mixer, beat together butter and sugar over medium speed until lightened and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Beat in egg until incorporated. Stir in molasses and vanilla. Add in dry ingredients in 2 additions over low speed until just combined. Refrigerate dough for 30-45 minutes or until firmed.
2
Preheat oven to 350u00b0F. Line a baking sheet with a silpat or parchment paper. Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto baking sheet, 2 inches apart. Roll each piece of dough into balls and flatten slightly on top. Bake on the center rack of the oven for 8-10 minutes or until lightly browned. Repeat in batches with remaining dough.
3
Cool cookies in pan for 5 minutes, transfer to a wire rack and allow to cool completely. While cookies cool, prepare the glaze. In a medium bowl, whisk together all ingredients, adding just enough cream to reach desired consistency. Drizzle glaze over cookies and allow to set. Enjoy.
