In a stand mixer, beat together the butter, sugar, and molasses until fluffy. Add the egg in small increments, beating well between each addition.
In a separate bowl, sift together the Flour, Baking Soda, Ground Cinnamon, Ground Ginger, Salt, and Ground Cloves. In small increments, stir the dry ingredients into the butter mixture until just combined.
Place the dough on a 1 sheet of baking paper. Place another sheet on top and press until the dough is a flat layer. Chill for 1 hour.
Preheat oven to 375° Fahrenheit.
On a lightly floured work surface, rollout to the dough to be approximately 5mm thick. Cut out 6 squares and 6 oval biscuits (re-roll trimming as necessary). Chill until firm.
Bake for 8-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly browned. Allow to cool for 1 minute on the tray before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
