What it is

Making gingerbread at home normally means mixing sugar, fat and a cupboard full of spices, then leaving the dough to rest. This Mario dough is already mixed and flavoured with plenty of spicy ginger and a bright note of lemon, alongside the usual warm gingerbread spices, so you can go straight to the fun part. A 500 g block makes a good tray of biscuits or a small gingerbread house.

Roll the dough out on a lightly floured surface to about 3–4 mm and cut out stars, hearts or gingerbread men. Bake in a preheated oven at about 180–200 °C for 6–8 minutes, until just firm at the edges. They harden as they cool. Decorate with icing once cold. Always follow the baking directions on the pack, because times vary from oven to oven.

Ingredients
