Instruction

Method

in a bowl, combine the dark brown sugar, golden syrup, and oil. You can also add a few spoonfuls of black treacle for a richer flavour.

in a separate bowl, blend the flour with the spices and then fold in the sugar/oil mixture. Mix with a wooden spooon until combined and forming a dough. Place in the fridge for 1 hour.

Preheat the oven to 170C. Flour a clean surface and roll out the dough to 1cm thick, and use cookie cutters to make festive shapes 🎄🎅🏻

place the cookies on baking parchment on trays, and bake for 12-15 minutes (or 10 if your cookies are a bit smaller or thinner). They should be slightly golden brown at the edges when done.

transfer to a wire rack to cool. If you want to ice them, mix 50g icing sugar with water (add in tbsps as needed) and spread or pipe onto cookies!

enjoy :)
