Steps:
- Sift flour, cinnamon, and ginger together in a large bowl. Add sugar and mix well. Work lard and butter into the flour mixture using a pastry blender.
- Combine vinegar and baking soda in a small bowl; mix to dissolve. Add mixture to the flour mixture in the bowl. Add molasses and mix thoroughly. Place dough in the refrigerator until chilled, about 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Roll dough out very thin on a floured surface. Cut into shapes using fancy cookie cutters.
- Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, about 10 minutes.
