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

  2. Shape each into a disk. Cover and refrigerate until easy to handle, about 1 hour.

  4. 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.
  5. 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.
