Position rack in centre of oven, then preheat to 350°F.

Roll out dough on a lightly floured surface to 1/4-in thick. Cut into gingerbread men shapes with 5-in cookie cutter. Arrange gingerbread on two large baking sheets, 1 in apart.

Bake until edges of cookies are set and just begin to brown, about 8 to 10 minutes. Cool cookies on baking sheets 1 to 2 minutes. Then transfer cookies to racks to cool completely. Store cookies in airtight container up to 5 days.
