For Christmas I got these really cool biscuit cutters, yes
biscuit cutters can be cool, and they print words into the biscuit. One of them is square with “eat me” and the
other is heart shaped with “homemade”. So I felt that they kind of had to be
used.
Lebkuchen are German biscuits which are very similar to
gingerbread except the fact that they don’t have ginger in them. The main
ingredient is honey and is full of spices like cinnamon and other festive
flavours.
Annie Bell makes them for her Christmas tree but thanks to
the new biscuit cutters, I decided not to bother with that. I also didn’t ice
them as I felt it was unnecessary.
An interesting fact about the biscuits, if you are
considering making them, is that they get better if you leave them in an air
tight box for a couple of days. They
stay crisp in the box and the flavour gets stronger. Also dip them in milk for
extra yumminess.
