Ingredients

1/4 cup honey
90 gr butter
2/3 cup brown sugar
1 egg
2,5 cups plain flour
1-2 tsp Gingerbreads spice
1 tsp baking powder

Instructions

Honey, butter, and sugar, heat to dissolve the sugar. You can put it in a bowl or put it on the table right away. I always prefer to put them in the bowl, then the ingredients join together faster, and the top is not so stuck with dough.
Cool and until warm.
Add an egg, make and knead the dough, then put it on the table. I use a silicone mat to cut cookies.
Divide the dough into 3 equal parts and roll out a 0.5 cm thick cake. Cut out your favorite patterns.
Fight to a thickness of 0.5 cm and cut your favorite gingerbread.
I sometimes use a pattern fight, so I don't have to decorate them, and they are delicious too.
The ready-made gingerbread cookies will be soft after being removed from the oven, but they will become tough when they cool down.
You can also use this dough to make a gingerbread house, and then after removing it from the oven as the parts are still soft, you can shape it with a knife (the dough rises a little when you take it out of the oven and the edges of your house become uneven).
A thicker dough is about 0.7 cm for a gingerbread house.
Bake for 8-10 minutes at 180°C/ 350°F
You can decorate them traditionally with icing or melted milk, bitter or white chocolate. Chocolate really gives the gingerbread an interesting flavor.
