Chocolate Gingerbread Christmas Stars with Powdered Sugar Glaze

This recipe was taken from Pillsbury's Chocolate Gingerbread Sandwhich Cookies and Gingerbread Stars. The Pillsbury recipes use their refrigerated cookie dough, this recipe includes a from scratch version. I love this classy cookie to give as a Christmas gift, or for any occassion really.
Cookie:
3 cups flour
2 tsp ginger, ground
1 tsp cinnamon, ground
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp cloves, ground
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1 1/2 sticke butter, softened
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 egg
1/2 cup molasses
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 cup baking cocoa

Bake at 350F for 6-9 minutes or until cookies are set. Cool completely before dipping in icing glaze.
