Instructions

In a medium bowl, combine the ﬂour, baking soda, cinnamon, salt, ginger, cloves, and mustard. Toss with a fork to mix well.
In a stand mixer ﬁtted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter on medium-high speed for 2 minutes. Add 2 cups of the sugar and beat for 3 minutes, scraping down the bowl once. Add the molasses and eggs and beat brieﬂy, then with the machine running on low, gradually add the ﬂour mixture and beat until well combined. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes or up to 12 hours.
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Put the remaining 1/4 cup sugar in a small bowl. Using a cookie scoop, shape the dough into 2-inch balls. Drop them into the sugar and roll to coat. Place on the prepared baking sheets about 2 inches apart. Press lightly with the bottom of a glass or cup. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes.
Cool on the baking sheet for 3 to 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.
