Today was the school Halloween party and the toddler has been very excited about it. This morning we went last minute shopping for some outfits and when we got home we baked some extra special gingerbread men, or gingerdead men, to get us in the mood for the party.
I made my favourite gingerbread recipe but with an added dollop of black treacle to give them some extra flavour. Lyle have launched a limited edition ‘Trick Or Treacle’ which we used last year to make some sticky ginger cakes which were delicious. After the biscuits had baked we decorated them with white icing. I’m not sure if they look like gingerdead men but they were pretty tasty and fun to make.
Lyle’s Limited Edition ‘Trick Or Treacle’ is available in three collectible pumpkin designs just for the spooky season. Perfect for making Gingerdead men for Halloween!
