These cookies have a lovely crisp snap and just the right amount of sweetness, with lots of festive and delicious gingerbread flavor. They're perfect to share for cookie swaps and are even great to ship as tasty gifts! In a small saucepan add sugar, corn syrup, butter and vinegar to a simmer. Remove from heat and pour into a large mixing bowl. Set aside to cool for 5 to 10 minutes. Mix in egg. Sift together the flour, soda, pepper, ginger, cloves, and cinnamon. Cover and refrigerate for several hours or overnight. Once the dough has chilled, roll the dough very thin on a floured surface. Cut into any desired shapes. Bake at 350°F on a parchment-lined baking sheet for 7 to 8 minutes. Remove cookies from the baking sheet immediately and allow to cool. Store in airtight tins.
