Step 1
In a stand mixer, or a large bowl with a hand mixer, add softened butter and brown sugar. Cream together until light and fluffy.
Step 2
Add molasses, egg, and vanilla. Mix until well incorporated.
Step 3
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together flour, ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking soda, and salt.
Step 4
Slowly add the flour mixture to your stand mixer, allowing each addition to get mostly incorporated before adding more.
Step 5
Once the dough is mixed, generously flour your work surface, either a clean counter or a large piece of parchment paper, and dump your dough onto the floured surface.
Step 6
Flour your hands, or use a piece of parchment paper to fold the dough together enough to wrap it in parchment and place in a gallon ziploc bag.
Step 7
Let the dough chill in the refrigerator for at least 6 hour, or for best results, overnight.
Step 8
After the dough has chilled, line a cookie sheet with parchment paper, and set aside.
Step 9
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees fahrenheit.
Step 10
Generously flour your work space again, plus your hands and rolling pin.
Step 11
Roll out your gingerbread dough, until ¼ inch thick. The edges don’t need to be perfect, they may crack but that’s okay.
Step 12
Use your gingerbread man cookie cutter to cut out ¼ inch thick ginger men in all of the places you can where the dough is solid, avoiding any thinner or cracked edges. We are going to re-roll the excess dough.
Step 13
Place your cut out ginger men on the prepared baking sheet. Gather up your leftover dough, and re-roll to repeat this process and make more ginger men, until all the dough is used up. For best results, and because this may take a while, chill your cut out gingerbread men in the refrigerator again for about 45 minutes.
Step 14
Move the cookies to your preheated oven, and bake for 10-12 minutes, until the edges are just crisping. Be careful not to overbake.
Step 15
Allow the cookies to cool on a wire rack.
Step 16
Once cookies have cooled, turn the gingerbread men upside down and use the melted chocolate to attach your candy eyes & M&M noses, and then draw on your reindeer antlers.
