You can use this recipe to make ginger biscuits as well, but there isn’t a child who can resist a gingerbread man. If you feel like it, you can go mad on the decoration, using tubes of ready-made icing to make stripy jumpers in Caribbean colours or licorice shoelaces to give your gingerbread men dreadlocks!
