Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).

Cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, and cloves.

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

Divide the dough in half and roll each half into a log about 1.5 inches in diameter.

Sprinkle pearl sugar on a plate and roll the logs in the sugar to coat.

Wrap the logs in plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

Slice the chilled logs into 1/4-inch thick rounds.

Place the cookies on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until golden brown around the edges.

Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
