Steps:
- In a large bowl, beat first five ingredients until blended. In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, cream of tartar and spices; beat into molasses mixture. Divide dough into four portions. Shape each into a disk; wrap in plastic. Refrigerate 1 hour or until firm enough to roll., Preheat oven to 375°. On a well-floured surface, roll each portion of dough to 1/4-in. thickness. Cut with a floured 4-in. gingerbread man cookie cutter. Place 1 in. apart on greased baking sheets. Using a plastic straw, make two holes at the neckline, about 1/2 in. apart., Bake until edges are lightly browned, 10-12 minutes. If necessary, reopen holes with straw. Remove cookies to wire racks; cool completely., If desired, decorate cookies with frosting; let dry completely. Decorate or string cookies with ribbon.
