Ginger Bread Cookies

Ingredients

• 2 ½ cups Flour
• ½ cup sugar
• ½ cup shortening
• ½ cup molasses
• 1 ½ cup Naturevibe Botanicals Ceylon Cinnamon Powder
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1 tsp  Naturevibe Botanicals Organic Ginger Powder
• 1 tsp Naturevibe Botanicals Organic Clove Buds
• ½ tsp baking soda
• ½ tsp salt
• 1 egg

Direction

1. Mix ingredients for gingerbread cookies. Typically start with the sugar, shortening and egg then add all spices , salt and baking powder/soda before slowing adding in the flour
2. Once gingerbread cookie dough is mixed, shape into a ball, wrap with plastic wrap and place in fridge for at least one hour. This will help firm up the dough so it’s easier to roll out.
3. After chilling roll out dough with a rolling pin to your desired thickness on a lightly floured surface. Cut as many shapes out as possible. Continue until all dough has been used.
4. Place cut out cookies on an ungreased cookie sheet ½ inches apart. Bake at 350 for 8 minutes or until browned. Allow cookies to cool completely before icing.
5. To make icing, combine egg white and cream of tartar with confectioners’ sugar. Mix until blended , then beat on high until mixture is stiff enough for a knife to leave a clean-cut path
6. To decorate cookies, fill a small pastry bag  with icing and decorate cookies as desired.
