½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground ginger
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 cup unsalted butter
1 ¾ cups white sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 eggs

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease cookie sheets.

These cookies were a bit dry. I think I'll add some more butter next time.
