How To make Christmas Tree Biscuits
6 oz Plain flour
1/2 ts Bicarbonate of soda
1 t Ground mixed spice
2 oz Butter, chilled and cubed
3 oz Soft light brown sugar
2 tb Golden syrup, heated
1 Egg, beaten
Plain flour for dusting DECORATION 9 oz Packet coloured fondant
Icing Glace icing made with 2oz Icing sugar & 2 tspn water Icing sugar for rolling Silver balls, sweets, Desiccated coconut, gold Thread
Preheat oven to 190'C (375'F). Grease two baking sheets. Sift the flour, bicarbonate of soda and spice into a bowl. Rub the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs. Stir in the sugar. Add the golden syrup and egg and mix to form a dough. Gently knead the dough on a floured surface until smooth, the roll out to 1/4 inch thick. Use christmas cutters to cut out 16 shapes. Lift shapes on to baking sheets and bake until just firm to the touch. Make a hole large enough for gold thread at the top of each biscuit. Transfer to cooling rack and leave until cold. To decorate, roll out fondant icing on a clean surface dusted with icing sugar. Cut out shapes with cutters and place on biscuits, securing them with a little water. Make a hole for thread as before. Decorate with piped glace icing, silver balls, sweets or coconut. Thread each biscuit with gold thread and hang on Christmas tree, if liked.

Adorn your Christmas tree with these pretty spiced gingerbread dove biscuits flavoured with orange, ginger and cinnamon. A great recipe to make with children.
Makes 18-20 biscuits
Ingredients:
For the biscuits
2 tbsp clear honey
30g unsalted butter
60g light brown sugar
Finely grated zest ½ orange, plus 3 tbsp freshly squeezed juice
1 large free-range egg
250g self-raising flour, plus extra to dust
1½ tsp ground ginger
½ tsp ground cinnamon
60g ground almonds
To decorate
225g royal icing sugar
Edible gold lustre dust
Ribbon or colourful twine
Method:
1. Put the honey, butter and sugar in a medium pan over a low heat and cook, stirring, until melted and combined. Leave for 5 minutes to cool, then stir in the orange zest, juice and egg. Sift in the flour and spices and add the ground almonds. Mix with a wooden spoon to form a dough, then knead on a lightly floured work surface for 2 minutes. Shape into a disc, wrap in cling film and chill for 30 minutes.
2. Heat the oven to 180°C/160°C fan/gas 4. Roll out the dough on a well-floured work surface to 4mm thick. Using the dove cutters, cut out 18-20 biscuits, re-rolling any trimmings. Using the tip of the piping bag nozzle, stamp out a small hole on the body of each dove. Put the biscuits on the baking trays and bake for 15-18 minutes until pale golden, then cool on a wire rack.
3. To decorate, first make the icing. Put 40ml cold water in a mixing bowl, then stir in the royal icing sugar to dissolve. Whisk with an electric hand mixer for 3-4 minutes until the icing is like thick glue. Spoon 2 tbsp into the piping bag, then trace a line around the outside of each biscuit and each hole. Leave to set for a few minutes. Stir 1 tbsp cold water into the remaining icing in the bowl. (It should be just runny enough to flow from the tilted tip of a spoon. Add a little more water if needed.)
4. Squeeze any remaining icing from the piping bag, then spoon the diluted icing into the piping bag. Use to fill inside the lines and out to the edges of each biscuit (a toothpick is helpful to move the icing to the edges if needed). Leave to dry completely, then dust the edges with a little edible gold lustre. Loop a ribbon through the hole and tie to hang on the Christmas tree.
