Gingerbread Biscuits

 
I baked gingerbread men and stars to give as Christmas gifts.
350g plain flour
1tsp bicarbonate of soda
2tsp ground ginger
1tsp cinnamon
125g butter
175g dark brown sugar
1 egg
4tbsp golden syrup
 
Sieve all the dry ingredients into a mixing bowl. Then add the remaining ingredients and mix until combined and forms a dough. Chill for 30 minutes and preheat oven to 180C/gas 4.
Roll the dough fairly thick and cut out shapes.
Place on a lined baking tray and bake for approximately 15 minutes or until dark brown.
 
I left mine to cool then decorated them with a simple icing sugar and water icing.
