Preparation Steps
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, cream together the brown sugar and butter until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg and molasses.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, ginger, cloves, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
Roll the dough into 1-inch balls and place them on the prepared baking sheets.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly browned.
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
