I decided to do some baking with her before she got too tired (or the calopl wore off!) and then we would all decorate the cookies together once the boys arrived home from school.<\/p>\n<p><em>Related Post: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pre-kpages.com\/play-dough-gingerbread-men-invitation\/\" target=\"_blank\">Invitation to Decorate Play Dough Gingerbread Men<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<h2>Delicious Dairy Free Ginger Spiced Cookies<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Ingredients<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>125g Dairy Free Spread<br \/>\n350g Plain Flour<br \/>\n100 g Light Muscovado Sugar<br \/>\n3 tbs Golden Syrup<br \/>\n1 tsp Bicarbonate of Soda<br \/>\n2 tsp Ginger<br \/>\n1 tsp Cinammon<br \/>\n1 tsp Mixed Spice<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4229\" src=\"https:\/\/craftykidsathome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/baking-ginger-spiced-cookies.jpg\" alt=\"baking dairy free ginger spiced cookies\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/craftykidsathome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/baking-ginger-spiced-cookies.jpg 600w, https:\/\/craftykidsathome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/baking-ginger-spiced-cookies-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/craftykidsathome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/baking-ginger-spiced-cookies-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/craftykidsathome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/baking-ginger-spiced-cookies-45x45.jpg 45w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Method<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Carefully melt the dairy free spread with the syrup over a medium heat. (This is best done by an adult)<\/li>\n<li>Measure the flour, bicarbonate of soda and all of the spices into a mixing bowl.<\/li>\n<li>Pour in the melted mixture and give it all a good mix together.<\/li>\n<li>Wrap in clingfilm and chill in the fridge for 15 minutes.<\/li>\n<li>Roll out to a thickness of 3 mm and use Christmas cutters to cut out different shapes for the cookies.<\/li>\n<li>Put them onto a baking tray and bake in the over for 8-10 minutes at 190C\/Gas Mark 5.<\/li>\n<li>Allow to cool on tray for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely before decorating.<\/li>\n<li>Mix together icing sugar and water until the icing is at your desired consistency. We added in a few drops of food colouring and peppermint essence as well. Then pour out lots of different sprinkles into small bowls and let your kids go crazy with the decorating.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Bella was very keen to get hands on with measuring out the ingredients, so we were probably a bit hit and miss with the actual measurements (well 3 tbs is probably around the same as 3 big splodges!). The cookies didn&#8217;t seem to \u00a0suffer for it though.<\/p>\n<p>They did bake REALLY really quickly though and we did mange to burn the first tray full, but luckily the recipe made plenty and we still had 3 more trays to cook.<\/p>\n<p>Once the boys arrived home I laid out the icing and sprinkles and set them to work. They all sat down together and (just about) managed to share the icing and sprinkles as they decorated their cookies. The peppermint icing was a big hit with them all. They loved the decorating, but enjoyed the eating the best!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4230\" src=\"https:\/\/craftykidsathome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/decorating-ginger-spiced-cookeis.jpg\" alt=\"decorating dairy free ginger spiced cookeis\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/craftykidsathome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/decorating-ginger-spiced-cookeis.jpg 600w, https:\/\/craftykidsathome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/decorating-ginger-spiced-cookeis-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/craftykidsathome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/decorating-ginger-spiced-cookeis-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/craftykidsathome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/decorating-ginger-spiced-cookeis-45x45.jpg 45w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>For more Festive Baking Ideas check out these yummy ideas:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/rainydaymum.co.uk\/no-roll-easy-kid-friendly-christmas-mince-pies\" target=\"_blank\">No Roll Kid Friendly Mince Pies <\/a>from Rainy Day Mum<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.playdoughandpopsicles.com\/2015\/12\/14\/how-to-make-must-have-soft-chewy-snickerdoodles\/\" target=\"_blank\">Soft and Chewy Snickerdoodles<\/a> from Play Dough and Popsicles<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.teach-me-mommy.com\/2015\/12\/spiral-cookie-lollipops.html\" target=\"_blank\">Spiral Cookie Lollipops<\/a> from Teach Me Mommy<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thecreativepair.com\/home\/how-to-make-christmas-cookies\" target=\"_blank\">How to make Christmas Cookies<\/a> from The Creative Pair<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/talesofbeautyforashes.com\/2015\/12\/chocolate-peanut-butter-cookies\/\" target=\"_blank\">Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies<\/a> from Tales of Beauty for Ashes<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/wittyhoots.com\/cms\/how-to-make-a-simple-festive-ice-cream\/\" target=\"_blank\">Simple Festive Ice Cream <\/a>from Witty Hoots<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.kitchencounterchronicle.com\/hot-chocolate-cookie-with-marshmallow-frosting\/\" target=\"_blank\">Hot Chocolate Cookies with Marshmallow Frosting<\/a> from Kitchen Counter Chronicles<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.sunhatsandwellieboots.com\/2015\/12\/christmas-cookie-gift-jar-making.html\" target=\"_blank\">Christmas Cookie Gift Jar<\/a> from Sun Hats and Wellie Boots<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.freshlyplanted.com\/2015\/12\/glutenfreeorangecranberrydip.html\" target=\"_blank\">Gluten Free Orange Cranberry Dip<\/a> from Freshly Planted<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/eepurl.com\/bfB1Rb\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-5087\" src=\"https:\/\/craftykidsathome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/Free-Kids-Activity-Planner-2.jpg\" alt=\"Free Kids Activity Planner Arts Crafts Sensory Play\" width=\"600\" height=\"100\" srcset=\"https:\/\/craftykidsathome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/Free-Kids-Activity-Planner-2.jpg 600w, https:\/\/craftykidsathome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/Free-Kids-Activity-Planner-2-300x50.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fill your kitchen with the warming scents of Christmas, when you bake our Delicious Dairy Free Ginger Spiced Cookies with your kids this Holidays.
