Christmas ginger little man

Brother Kolobka This American cartoon hero settled deeply in our region. It is not for nothing that he is called the brother of our freedom-loving Kolobok. About a little man even composed a song for the motif of V. Butusov's hit "I was too small ... your gingerbread forms". To cook a little man is very simple. The difficulty in the other is how to eat it later? So much effort and love you put in the drawing of the boy and ... sad. But back to cooking ginger dough. This time the spice setting will be different. Ground ginger and other spices are mixed with butter, so the flavor will volatilize more slowly. Kneading to spend quickly in a cool room. To cut out the figure of a little man with a stencil is more convenient, if the test dough is placed with the parchment immediately on a baking tray. We color our boy with the same natural dyes as beet, turmeric. I wish you a pleasant creative process!
