Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, and salt. Set aside.

In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Add the egg, molasses, and vanilla extract, and mix until well combined.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.

Roll the dough into 1-inch balls, then roll each ball in granulated sugar to coat.

Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers are still soft.
