Ingredients

  • 1 package Duncan Hines® Moist Deluxe® Spice Cake Mix
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 eggs
  • 0.33 cups vegetable oil
  • 0.33 cups dark molasses
  • 2 teaspoons ground ginger
  • non-pareils
  • 1 tub Duncan Hines® Creamy Home-Style Vanilla Icing

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

  2. 2

    Combine cake mix, flour, eggs, oil, molasses, and ginger in a large bowl (mixture will be soft). Refrigerate 2 hours.

  3. 3

    Place dough on a lightly floured surface; cover with waxed paper. Roll out dough to 1/4-inch thickness. Cut with a gingerbread man cookie cutter. Place 3 inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet. Decorate with nonpareil sprinkles.

    Bake in the preheated oven for 8 to 10 minutes, or until edges start to brown. Remove immediately to a cooling rack.
