  1. Prepare the ingredients. Prepare all the ingredients - we will be baking with them in a moment 🍪✨

  2. Mix the liquid ingredients. In a small bowl, mix the liquid ingredients - melted (but not hot) butter, egg, and honey.

  3. Mix the dry ingredients. In a larger bowl, mix the dry ingredients - flour, baking soda, gingerbread spice mix, sugar, cocoa, gingerbread spice, and cinnamon.

  4. Make the dough. Add the liquid ingredients to the dry ingredients and work into a smooth dough, then let it rest in the refrigerator for at least 15-60 minutes.

  5. Roll out and bake. Roll out the dough to a sheet about 3-4 mm thick, cut out shapes, and bake in the oven at 175 C for about 5-10 minutes.

  6. Brush the gingerbread cookies. While still hot, brush the gingerbread cookies with beaten egg (optionally with a little rum) and let them cool.

  7. Serve. Serve, optionally decorated with icing made from egg whites, powdered sugar, and lemon juice 🍽️✨
