Butter, sugar and honey heated in a saucepan on low heat with spices (cardamom and crush with a knife, grate the ginger, vanilla, cut in half lengthwise), rum and zest.

Flour mixed with baking powder, cocoa and salt, sift into the mixture. Knead the dough until no longer sticky (5-10 minutes). Wrap in cling film and leave to rest up at room temperature for 3-4 hours. Knead the dough until elastic, roll it out on the surface, floured, with a layer of 3-4 mm. unevenly Cut piece under the base of trees, about 20 cm in diameter and 5 stars sizes.
Bake at 200°C for 8-10 minutes on baking paper or a silicone Mat.
Mix egg white with powdered sugar until smooth and very thick. Dilute some lemon juice. Weight should not be spread. Sugar I took a small cane, can be readily powdered sugar. Glaze no whip, and stir well.

The Assembly implemented the so - 2 stars the same size bonded together, each with a shift of the rays relative to the previous star. A total of 10 cookies each Christmas tree plus for the top glue the 2 small stars between them and set the edge.
Sprinkle with powdered sugar. If desired, from Rowan berries to make "balls" on the tree, gluing them with icing.
