Time 40m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
6 tablespoons white sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 ½ teaspoons ground nutmeg
¼ teaspoon ground cloves
2 cups softened butter

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Combine flour, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves in a bowl. Cut in butter until the mixture resembles small crumbs. Pack the crumbs into a ball, then knead by hand until smooth.
  • Lightly flour a work surface. Roll dough out into a thick disc, 1/4- to 1/2-inch thick. Cut out desired shapes using a cookie cutter. Place cookies on the prepared baking sheet. Gather scraps together, roll out, and repeat.
  • Bake cookies in the preheated oven until edges are lightly browned, about 20 minutes.
