Description

These gingerbread cookies with dark chocolate are a delightful treat, perfect for the holiday season or any time you crave a spicy-sweet indulgence. I've been making these for years, and they always disappear quickly! The combination of ground ginger and stem ginger gives them a wonderful warmth, while the dark chocolate adds a touch of richness. They're surprisingly easy to make, especially with the Thermomix®, and the dough can even be frozen for future baking adventures. These cookies are perfect with a cup of tea or coffee, and they make a lovely homemade gift.

Shape and chill the dough

Cut the dough in half and shape each piece into a thick sausage about 6cm across, making sure that the ends are straight. Wrap in cling film and chill for 20 mins. You can now freeze all or part of the dough for 2 months.

7

Bake the cookies

Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4 and line 2 baking sheets with baking parchment. Thickly slice each sausage into 12 and put the slices on the baking sheets, spacing them well apart and reshaping any, if necessary, to make rounds. Bake for 12 mins, then leave to cool for a few mins to harden before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

8

Melt the chocolate

Thermomix® Setting
3 min/122°F/Speed 2 50

Add 200g bar dark chocolate, broken into pieces, to the mixing bowl. Melt for 3 Min./50°C/Stufe 2.

Decorate the cookies

Dip half of each cookie into the melted chocolate – you may need to spoon it over when you get to the final few. Decorate with a slice of ginger, if you like, and leave to set. Will keep for 1 week in an airtight container.
