Ingredients

•1/2 cup butter, softened
•3/4 cup packed dark brown sugar
•1/3 cup molasses
•1 large egg
•2 tablespoons water
•2-2/3 cups all-purpose flour
•1 teaspoon baking soda
•1/2 teaspoon salt
•2 teaspoons ground ginger
•1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
•1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg

Directions

1) Cream butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in molasses, egg and water. In another bowl, whisk together remaining ingredients minus frosting; gradually beat into creamed mixture. Divide dough in half. Shape each into a disk; wrap in plastic. Refrigerate until easy to handle, about 30 minutes.
2) Preheat oven to 350°. On a lightly floured surface, roll each portion of dough to 1/8-in. thickness. Cut with a floured 4-in. gingerbread man cookie cutter. Place 2 in. apart on greased baking sheets.
3) Bake until edges are firm, 8-10 minutes. Remove to wire racks to cool completely. Frost as desired.
