Ingredients:
| 1/3 cup butter, softened |
| 3/4 cup packed dark brown sugar |
| 1/2 cup molasses |
| 1 large egg, room temperature |
| 2 teaspoons vanilla extract |
| 3 cups all-purpose flour |
| 3 teaspoons ground ginger |
| 1 1/2 1-1/2 teaspoons baking powder |
| 1 1/4 1-1/4 teaspoons ground cinnamon |
| 3/4 teaspoon baking soda |
| 1/4 teaspoon salt |
| 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves |
| 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips, melted |

Directions:
- In a large bowl, beat butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy, 5-7 minutes. Beat in molasses, egg and vanilla. In another bowl, whisk flour, ginger, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda, salt and cloves; gradually beat into creamed mixture. Divide dough in half.
- Shape each into a disk. Cover and refrigerate until easy to handle, about 1 hour.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. On a lightly floured surface, roll each portion to 1/4-in. thickness. Cut with a floured 3-in. gingerbread man cookie cutter.
- Place 2 in. apart on greased baking sheets. Create lines in each cutout with tines of a fork to look like fur. Bake until edges are firm, 7-9 minutes. Remove from pans to wire racks to cool completely.
- To decorate, pipe melted semisweet chocolate for eyes, nose and utility belt, then pipe melted white chocolate for mouth and bullets. Let stand until set.
- Servings 20 cookies
