Method

  • step 1

    Rub the butter into the flour in a large bowl until you have fine crumbs. Stir in the beaten egg, our festive spice, golden caster sugar, honey and cream of tartar. Stir unil a soft dough forms, then wrap in cling film and chill for 20-30 mins.

  • step 2

    Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Roll out the dough, cut into festive shapes and bake for 10-12 mins on lined baking trays. Dip in melted dark chocolate, if you like.

yeah If you roll any extra into a log, wrap and freeze. You can then cut off 1cm cookies from the frozen roll and bake these off for extra biscuits. Thanks, Adam Good Food cookery team

Thanks for your question. We'd suggest gingerbread biscuits as the best option. Here is a recipe for a biscuit advent calendar: https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/chocolate-gingerbread
