Then cut out the gingerbread man shapes. Don't bother imprinting the skeleton shape prior to baking, because the dough puffs up a little bit, and you lose the depth of the bone shapes. Instead, bake as directed, and immediately stamp the bone shapes in when you take your cookies out of the oven, while the dough is still soft and warm. Roll out on a floured surface to slightly thicker than a pound coin. Cut into gingerbread men and put on the trays.
