While it falls into the realm of baked goods infused with spices like cinnamon, ginger, cloves, and nutmeg, sweetened with honey, molasses, or sugar, lebkuchen sets itself apart. Unlike the crispy gingerbread man cookie, lebkuchen boasts a soft, dense texture, often enriched with nuts, creating a delightful hybrid between a cake and a cookie.
INGREDIENTS:
???? 1 large egg
???? 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
???? ½ cup (dark muscovado) brown sugar
???? ⅓ cup clover honey
???? ⅓ cup molasses
???? 1 tablespoon Lebkuchen spice

????¼ teaspoon mace
????¼ coriander

???? ½ cup chopped walnuts
???? ½ cup mixed candied fruits and lemon peels (finely chopped)
???? 1 egg white
???? 1½ cups powdered sugar
???? 1 tablespoon lemon juice
???? diced mixed candied fruits and peels and/or nuts for decorating
INSTRUCTIONS:
???? Preheat oven to 350°F Grease a medium size rimmed cookie sheet (you can use parchment paper as well).
???? Have icing and items for decorating ready to use as soon as the cake is baked.
???? In large mixing bowl, beat egg and oil. Add brown sugar and beat well. Add clove honey and molasses. Mix well.
???? Mix dry ingredients: flour, Lebkuchen spice, and baking soda. Add flour mixture to egg mixture and beat till well mixed.
