Gingerbread Animal Crackers

Place the first 7 ingredients in a food processor and pulse to combine. Mix in the butter, then add the egg, molasses, and vanilla and pulse until the dough forms into a ball. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and chill in the fridge for 30 minutes.

Preheat oven to 350°F. Roll out dough to 1/8-inch thick and cut using 1 1/2-inch animal shape cookie cutters, like Wilton's Mini Noah's Art Set. Place cutouts on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the cookies are set and starting to turn golden brown on the edges.
