Step 1

You can make your cookie dough in a food processor, or by hand without any problem. Pour all the ingredients in your container: flour, powdered sugar, spices, soft butter, and the egg in the center (not like me who dropped my egg on the side haha).

Step 2

Then mix it into a dough. Don't knead it too much, the goal is just to form a ball in order to have soft cookies later.

Step 3

Roll it out lightly, then wrap it in cling film. We'll keep it in the fridge for at least 1 hour! Ideally, it should be left for 6 hours.

Step 4

After the resting time, take your dough out and roll it out on a lightly floured work surface.

Step 5

Time to shape your little men using a cookie cutter!

Step 6

Place them on a baking sheet and bake at 180°C for about 15 minutes.

Step 7

The baking time depends on your oven, but you can take them out when they are golden on the ends (hands and feet). :)

Step 8

All you have to do is decorate them with a little royal icing! Or by using decorative pens.

Step 9

And that's it it's ready, enjoy! :)
