Directions
-
In a pan, heat 1 tsp of sugar over low heat until dissolved. Add 100 ml of hot water and stir until fully combined. Mix in 260 g of sugar, 1 tsp of cinnamon, 1/2 tsp of ginger, 1/4 tsp of cardamom, and 1/4 tsp of nutmeg. Stir well. Gradually add 200 g of flour to the mixture, stirring until smooth. Transfer the mixture to a bowl and let it cool slightly. Once cooled, add 1 egg and 50 g of softened butter. Mix well until fully combined. Stir in 1 tsp of baking soda. Gradually add 450 g of flour (and a bit more if needed) while mixing with your hands to form a soft dough.
-
Divide the dough into 40 g portions and roll each piece into a ball. Place the dough balls onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Press each ball lightly with your hand to flatten it slightly. Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (356°F) for 15 minutes.
-
In a bowl, mix 150 g of powdered sugar, 1/2 tsp of lemon juice, and 7 tsp of water until smooth. Remove the biscuits from the oven and let them cool slightly. Dip or coat each biscuit with the sugar mixture evenly. Allow the coating to set before serving.
