Prep: 10 minutes
Cook: 18 minutes
Total: 28 minutes

Preheat oven to 350F. Line a muffin pan with paper liners and set aside.

In a large bowl, cream together butter and sugar. Add eggs and 
vanilla. Stir until well combined.

In a small bowl, add molasses and boiling water. Stir until combined. 
Add to butter mixture and stir to combine.

In a separate bowl, whisk (or sift) together the dry ingredients: 
flour, baking soda, ginger, cinnamon, cloves, and salt. Make a well 
in the middle of the dry ingredients and add wet ingredients. Stir 
until just combined.

Portion batter into muffin pan, filling about 3/4 full. Bake for 17 
to 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a 
mufifn comes out clean or with crumbs, not batter.

Transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely before dusting tops 
with confectioner's sugar (optional).

Notes: Store cooled muffins in a tightly sealed container at room 
temperature. Homemade muffins will keep for about 3 days.
Muffins can be frozen in a freezer safe container for up to 3 months. 
Set frozen muffins on counter top for 30 minutes to bring to room temperature.
