Ginger Shortbread Biscuits:
Add 3 teaspoons of ground ginger at step 2. An extra teaspoon of ground ginger or crystallised ginger can be added if you prefer a stronger ginger flavour.

Use cookie cutters to cut into stars or Christmas trees. Once cool, dust with icing sugar. A great homemade Christmas gift.
