• 250 grams Unsalted butter
• 1 Egg
• 1 tbsp Ginger powder
• 2 tsp Cinnamon
• 1 tsp Nutmeg
• 1/2 tsp Baking soda

1. Combine the molasses and butter in a pan, cook over low heat, and add the butter.
2. Be careful not to burn it!
3. Once it cools, mix in the egg.
4. Mix together the flour, sugar, and spices in a bowl.
5. Gradually add the cooled wet ingredients from Step 1 to make the dough.
6. Once the mixture forms a dough, wrap in plastic wrap, then chill in the refrigerator for 40 minutes.
7. Roll out the dough, then cut the cookies.
8. Arrange on parchment paper on a baking sheet, then bake for 20 minutes in an oven preheated to 160 C (320 F).
9. Once the gingerbread cookies are cooled to the touch, they're ready to be iced.
10. Add any color you like to the icing.
11. (Mix a small amount of egg white to powdered sugar until it reaches an appropriate consistency, then fill pastry bags to decorate.)
