This was my very first time making gingerbread but they came out absolutely fantastic. I know I like my gingerbread a little spicier so I took the advice of others and added ginger, cinnamon, allspice, cloves and nutmeg on top of the spices in the recipe. The dough was sticky. I suggest only rolling out a small portion and keeping the rest refrigerated until ready to use. If it gets too sticky, put it back in the fridge and pull some from the chilled portion. I've tried different types of icing but I like Paula Deen's for decorating cookies. 3/4 cup powdered sugar and add 1 Tbl milk. Mix. If you need more milk, add by the dropful. A little milk goes a long way.
