Gingerbread Biscuits
Ingredients
- 350g plain flour
- 2 teaspoon ground ginger
- ½ teaspoon ground cloves
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
- 100g butter
- 175g dark soft brown sugar
- 1 egg
- 4 tablespoons golden syrup
Method
- Mix the flour and spices together
- Rub in the butter until it resembles breadcrumbs
- Add the sugar
- In a separate bowl, mix together the egg and golden syrup, then add to the dry ingredients.
- Mix together until it forms a soft dough. Tip out onto a clean work surface and knead for a minute or two until the dough is smooth.
- Pre-heat the oven to 180C
- Roll out the dough to the thickness of a pound coin and cut out shapes with cookie cutters. If you want to hang them on the tree remember to punch out a hole at the top, a straw is really good for this.
- Lay the biscuits onto a greased baking tray or baking parchment and bake for 10 – 15 minutes until golden brown.
- Leave to cool before decorating with icing and sprinkles. Thread with ribbon and hang them on your tree.
