I had the great time last week making gingerbread men with my kid {Our gingerbread is very easy to make - do you try?}
Ingredients:1 kg plain flour (I use gluten free)
100 g butter
50 g coco butter
4 eggs
150 g icing sugar
100 g of maple syrup {because I forgot to buy honey :-)}
2 tablespoon of baking soda
4 tablespoons of gingerbread spice {ground mixed spice}
........................................................................................................
- melted butter
- sift the flour
- add baking soda and ground mixed spice into bowl and mix
- stir in the melted butter and two eggs, until well combined
- put the dought onto a floured surface and gently roll it out (not too thinly)
- Cut out shapes
- putting them onto a baking tray
- bake in the oven for 10-15 minutes (preheat the oven to 180 st. C)

A few days later we were going to decorate gingerbread but it turned out that my son doesn't like to decorate it. Then I tried to hang gingerbread men on the Christmas tree but my son started eating gingerbread men head....so I finished decorating the Christmas tree at night.
The next day it was fine. Gingerbread still hang on the Christmas tree.
They look really great and probably taste as good as they look. Your son is sooo cute!
