Gingerbread cookies men {Christmas Inspirations}

The sights, the smells, the magical feeling in the air ... Christmas is getting closer and closer ... 
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.
