Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  2. Combine flour, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, baking powder and salt in medium bowl; set aside.
  3. Beat Country Crock Spread with granulated sugar in large bowl with electric mixer until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in egg until blended. Beat in flour mixture just until blended. Divide dough in half; flatten into disks. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate 30 minutes or until firm enough to roll.

  5. Bake 10 to 12 minutes until edges are golden. Cool 2 minutes on wire rack. Remove from baking sheets and cool completely.
  6. For the glaze, combine confectioners sugar and water in small bowl until smooth. Spread glaze over tops of cookies.
