This recipe is from my sister-in-law's mother, who was kind enough to share her recipe. I make these every Christmas, and my family looks forward to them every year. The yield depends on the type of cookie cutters you use (I estimated, based on 1 1/2"-size cookies).

SERVES 30 , 70 cookies (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1 cup butter, softened (2 sticks)
1 cup molasses
1 cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoons vinegar
1 large egg
5 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons ground ginger
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground cloves

Directions

1
In a large bowl, combine the first 5 ingredients.
2
In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, salt, and spices.
3
Combine the dry mixture into the wet mixture, until incorporated.
4
Roll flat (to about 1/8" thick), and cut into desired shapes.
5
Bake at 375 degrees for 5-10 minutes, depending on size and thickness of cutout shapes.
6
Cool on a wire rack, and decorate as desired.
