PdfPreheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a baking mat.
Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, beat the softened butter and brown sugar together until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the molasses and egg, mixing well until combined.
Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, and salt.
Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. The dough will be soft.
Form Cookies: Scoop about a tablespoon of dough and roll it into a ball. Roll each ball in granulated sugar before placing it on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the tops are cracked and the edges are set. The cookies will continue to firm up as they cool.
Cool: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
