It's feeling Christmassy now and we decided to make some gingerbread men, trees and stars. They smell delicious and were really good fun to make.
Here is the recipe:
ingredients:
350g/12oz plain flour (and a little extra for rolling out)
1 tsp bicarbonate of soda
2 tsp ground ginger
1 tsp ground cinnamon
125g/4.4oz butter
175g/6oz light soft brown sugar
1 free range egg
4 tbsp golden syrup
1. You need to put the flour, bicarbonate of soda, ginger and cinnamon in a bowl, using a sieve.
(mmm mmmmm smells good!)
2. Crack two eggs into a different bowl and mix in the golden syrup.
3. Mix all of it together and use a mixer to make it crumbly and sticky.
4. Then put cling film over it and leave it in the fridge for 15 minutes.
5. Try and keep any pets away from it!
Then 'knead' it and roll it out.
6. Cut your shapes.
7. Bake them for 10-12 minutes
then have fun decorating them.
8. Yay! This is the fun bit!
9. Yummy.
They make really good presents or you can eat them yourself!
I hope you like them.
