latvian gingerbread

Latvian Gingerbread
1/3 cup molasses
1 cup brown sugar
3 tablespoons lard (it must be lard)
1/2 cup butter
1/3 cup honey
2 1/2 cups flour
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon ginger

2 1/4 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda

Add the 2 1/4 cups flour (a little bit more if the dough is sticky when kneading), baking soda and baking powder. Knead until smooth and not sticky. Refrigerate overnight.
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Roll the dough out quite thin and press gingerbread shapes. Bake until just golden and lightly brown underneath, about 3 to 5 minutes, depending on your oven. Let cool, then remove from pan.
