These are the best gingerbread men I've made. Lots of spice, sweet enough but not too sweet, and the rich buttery dough handles fine.

Roll them thin, and they turn out crispy, a little thicker and there is softness in the middle.

They do benefit from frosting - dough isn't terribly sweet - which makes them perfect.
