I’m giving some of these in a gift basket this year. To make them cuter, Tie a gingerbread man (or woman!) cookie cutter to the outside of the jar with festive ribbon.
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1 cup packed brown sugar
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tsp ground ginger
1 tsp ground cloves
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp ground allspiceCombine 2 cups of the flour with the baking soda and baking powder and spices. Using a one-quart wide-mouth jar, layer the ingredients , pressing down each layer to make them all fit.
