In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, allspice, and ground cloves.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined to form a dough. Be careful not to overmix.
💡 专业技巧: Overmixing can lead to tough cookies. - 5
Form the dough into a ball, then flatten it into a disc. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or until firm.
