Christmas Ginger biscuits
Very quick and easy to make, they are so gingery and a real taste of Christmas! They cook in less than 10 minutes what could be better!
I’ve made these with cooking live with Yui on Instagram, we were dipping biscuits and bread sticks in chocolate, I’ve used 70% dark chocolate with a few drops of orange blossom water in as well!

Line a large baking tray with baking paper. I used a tablespoon measure to scoop out equal quantities of the mixture! It makes approximately 20 biscuits. Roll them into a ball and place on to the baking tray.
