Ingredients:  
¾ cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
½ cup dark corn syrup

1 tbsp ground ginger

Directions:
Directions:
1. Beat butter, corn syrup, brown sugar, ginger, cinnamon, cloves and cardamom in a large bowl until light and fluffy. Fold in whipped cream until blended.
2. Sift flour and baking soda together. Gradually stir into batter until thoroughly blended. Dough will be soft but not sticky. Turn out onto large sheet of plastic wrap. I shape into a roll and then overwrap with foil. Refrigerate at least 24 hours but no longer than 1 week.
3. Heat oven to 375º. Divide dough into 6 equal parts. Using lightly floured rolling pin, roll out 1/8 inch thick on lightly floured pastry cloth. Keep remaining dough refrigerated. Cut out hearts with cookie cutter and placed on lightly buttered cookie sheets. Stack scraps and refrigerate until cold before re-rolling.
4. Bake cookies until firm, about 10 minutes. transfer to wire rack to cool completely. Repeat with remaining dough. Cookies will keep stored in airtight containers or tightly wrapped in freezer for weeks.
