Here's a bit of fun for Christmas which the kids will love having a go with. You'll need the cookie cutters, but they come in all shapes, sizes and designs nowadays.

Ingredients:
340g plain flour
160g light brown sugar
100g unsalted butter
3 tbsp ground ginger
4 tbsp golden syrup
1 tsp bicarbonate soda
1 egg
For gluten free version, use gluten free flour and add ¼tsp of xantham gum.
Icing:
150g Icing sugar
1 egg white
A few drops of vanilla extract
Method:
Preheat oven to 180⁰c, line 2 baking trays with parchment paper.
Cream the butter and sugar together, add the egg and beat in. Then add all the other ingredients mixing until a smooth dough forms. Roll dough out onto a floured work surface until dough is appx 3mm thick.
Cut out the shape of the house using a cookie cutter. You will need two 2 fronts, 2 sides and 2 roofs per biscuit. Space each piece out on the baking tray. Place biscuits in the oven and bake for appx 6-8 mins. They will be firm to touch and slightly darker when ready.
Place on a wire rack to cool, (they will harden once cooled). Once fully cooled,
Icing:
Whisk the egg white on medium speed until it becomes foamy, then add the icing sugar and vanilla. Beat on high until stiff shiny peaks form. You will need a small piping bag and nozzle to decorate.

Use the icing on the edges of each side of the 6 biscuits to stick the house together, allow to set and then decorate.

Enjoy

This recipe comes from an Indian friend who called her Grandmother Chiji. It's a term of endearment and this is a family favourite passed down through the generations.

When we think about sun protection, skincare naturally takes priority. But while you’re protecting face and body, your hair is left exposed to the same damaging UV rays. The result? Dryness, fading colour, brittleness, frizz, and a noticeable loss of shine and elasticity.
