Gingerbread Cookies
Cream the brown sugar and butter. Add the eggs one at a time, then the molasses. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, cinnamon, ginger, and baking soda. Slowly blend the dry ingredients into the wet to make a stiff dough. Divide dough in half, form two circles and refrigerate at least one hour. Roll out dough and cut cookies. Bake at 350°F for 5 minutes for mini-gingerbread men or 8-10 minutes for larger cookies.
Wintergreen Icing
Wintergreen berries are pinkish red, so this icing is a pale pink. Stir together all ingredients to make a thick icing.
Vanilla Icing
Stir together all ingredients to make a thick icing.
Peppermint Icing
Stir together all ingredients to make a thick icing.
Decorate cool cookies by piping the icing on or drizzling it with a spoon.
