Gingerbread cookies

Ingredients for gingerbreads:

• Three glasses of sugar;
• A half cup of milk;
• 7-8 glasses of flour;
• A teaspoonful of soda;
• A half tablespoon of mint drops (you can buy them at a pharmacy);
• Four eggs.

Ingredients for glaze:

• One and a half glasses of sugar;
• Half a glass of milk.

Method of cooking gingerbreads:

We bring the milk and sugar to a boil, stirring all the time. Then turn off and add two glasses of flour, mix well and leave for about an hour.

Then take another warm dough and add to it a mixture of soda, mint drops and eggs. Mix everything well and add five to six glasses of flour. You should get this dough so you can roll it out.

Roll out the dough about a centimeter thick and cut out the circles.

The resulting circles are laid out on a baking sheet, which must be oiled with sunflower oil, and put in the oven (temperature up to 200 degrees).

In ten minutes your gingerbread will be ready. Importantly do not overdry them.

After the gingerbread cookies get a little cool, you need to roll them in the glaze.

We prepare the glaze: boil the milk and sugar for seven minutes, stirring, and use while hot.

Whichever recipe you choose, we are just sure that the gingerbread homemade, prepared with our own hands, will turn out to be magnificent.
