Ingredients

  • 2 ⅓ cups all purpose flour 350g
  • ¾ cup self raising flour 100g
  • ½ cup sugar 125g
  • 2 ½ ticks butter 125g
  • ½ cup molasses 125g, or golden syrup
  • 1 egg large, lightly beaten
  • 1 tsp ginger ground
  • 2 tsp allspice
  • ½ tsp cloves ground
  • ⅔ cup green sanding sugar 100g

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Sift the flours together into a large mixing bowl of an electric mixer and add the sugar and spices. Add the butter and mix using a paddle attachment until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.
  3. Add the egg and molasses and mix until combined and the mixture starts to form into a ball.
  4. Line your kitchen counter with non stick baking paper and turn out the mixture onto the paper.
  5. Roll out the dough until approximately 5mm thick. If you don't have a wreath cookie cutter, like I didn't, use a fluted circular cookie cutter and then a shot glass to cut out the center of each cookie.
  6. Once you have cut out the cookies, working one at a time, lightly moisten the top of the cookie with water and then sprinkle generously with the sanding sugar. Place on a baking tray lined with baking paper while you sugar the remaining cookies.
  7. Bake for 14 minutes.
