This recipe came from my sister-in-law's aunt. We like it even more than my grandmother's recipe. What's also nice is that you can form it into a couple logs and then just slice and bake after chilling the dough rather than cutting them out. That is if you're only looking for the wonderful flavor rather than the little men. By the way, I also have a little girl cutout besides the little boy cutout. It makes my nieces feel special!

GINGERBREAD MEN





Makes about 8 (5 inch long) fat men or 16 thinner ones.





Blend until creamy:





1/4 c. butter


1/2 c. white or brown sugar





Beat in:





1/2 c. dark molasses





Sift:





3 1/2 c. flour





Re sift with:





1 tsp. soda


1/4 tsp. cloves


1/2 tsp. cinnamon


1 tsp. ginger


1/2 tsp. salt





Add the sifted ingredients to the butter mixture i about 3 parts alternately with:





5 tbsp. or more water





You will have to work in the last of the flour mixture with your hands. If you want crude men roll a ball for a head, a larger ball for the body and cylinders for the arms and legs. stick them together on a greased pan to form a fat boy. If you want something looking less like primitive man, roll the dough to any thickness you like. A good way to do this is to grease the bottom of a baking sheet and to roll the dough directly onto it. Now cut out your figures either with a floured cookie cutter or make a pattern of your own in the following: Fold a square or stiff paper or light cardboard lengthwise and cut it out as desired. Unfold it and you have a symmetrical pattern. Grease one side of the pattern and place it on the rolled dough. Cut around the outlines with a sharp knife. Remove the scraps of dough between the figures. Use the scraps to make more men.





Decorate the figures before baking them with small raisins, bits of candied cherry, red hots, decorettes, citron, etc. indicating features, buttons, etc. After baking the men may receive further decorations as described below.





Bake the cookies in a moderate oven (350 degrees) for about 8 minutes or according to their thickness. Test them with a toothpick. Remove them at once from the pans. Let them cool.





Stir in a small bowl to make a paste: 1/4 cup confectioners' sugar and a few drops of water. You may add a drop or two of coloring. Apply the icing with a toothpick or small knife to make additional garnishes such as caps, hair, mustaches, belts, shoes, etc. Children love to make these.
GINGERBREAD MEN COOKIES





2 3/4 c. flour


1/2 tsp. soda


1 tsp. ginger


1 tsp. ground cloves


1/2 tsp. cinnamon


1/2 tsp. salt


1/2 c. shortening


1/4 c. brown sugar


3/4 c. molasses


1 beaten egg


1 tsp. hot water


1 tsp. vinegar





Mix all ingredients. Roll onto well floured surface. Cut into gingerbread men. Place on greased cookie sheets dusted with flour. Bake at 350 degrees until brown.





hope this helps. good luck and enjoy.
You have 2 choices:





1. Go to your local bakery, place the order, pay the bill, retrieve the little men.





2. Find your neighborhood old elderly lady/empty nester...place the order, make the compliments, retrieve the little men.
