1. Whisk the flour, baking soda, ginger, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, and salt together until combined. Set aside.
2. In a large bowl using a hand-held or stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat the butter and both sugars together on high speed until creamy and combined, about 2 minutes. Add the molasses and beat until combined. Then add the egg and vanilla extract and beat until combined, about 1 minute. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl as needed.
3. On low speed, slowly mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until combined. The cookie dough will be slightly sticky. Cover dough tightly with aluminum foil or plastic wrap and chill for 1 hour and up to 2-3 days.
4. Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C). Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats. (Always recommended for cookies.) Set aside.

1. Cream shortening, sugar, molasses and buttermilk with a mixer. Add baking soda, salt, ginger and vanilla and continue mixing. Add flour a cup at a time until mixture is thick enough that you can pinch off pieces and roll into balls about the size of a walnut. (Note: I mix in 2 cups and mix with mixer, then start adding more flour and mix with a spoon until the right consistency to handle).
2. Place walnut sized balls onto a greased cookie sheet and flatten. (I just use my hand to flatten). Bake in preheated 350 degree oven for 12 to 15 minutes. Makes about 3 dozen depending on size you make them.
