Halloween treats




Halloween cookies

125 gr butter, unsalted and softened
60 gr sugar

Mix butter and sugar on high speed until light and fluffy. Add the egg and mix on medium speed until well combined. Add lemon zest. With mixer on low speed, add ginger and flour in two batches, mixing until just incorporated. Form the dough into a ball, wrap with cling film and leave for a minimum of two hours in the fridge. Roll out the dough in between two layers of freezer bags. Cut out cookie shapes. Preheat oven to 180 degrees and bake for approx. 10min.
