Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon

  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, sugar, cinnamon, ginger powder, and cardamom until well combined.
  3. In another bowl, cream the softened butter until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition; then stir in vanilla extract.
