-
In a large bowl cream confectioners sugar, softened butter, and vinegar.
-
In a medium bowl sift together the flour, ginger, baking soda, and salt.
-
Mix dry ingredient into the creamed butter mixture.
-
If dough is too dry, add milk or cream a tablespoon at a time.
-
Chill dough and keep unused portion in refrigerator while making each batch.
-
On lightly floured board or silpad, roll dough 1/8 - 1/4 inch. Cut into desired shapes with cookie cutters.
-
Bake in a 400°F oven for 6-8 minutes, until edges turn golden brown. Keep a close eye on cookies, especially if cookies are different sizes. I bake a sheet of stars, then angels, etc. so they will bake evenly.

Cool on wire rack before decorating.
