Description
We have already felt the approach of Christmas, the shops there were mince pies, all the Christmas tinsel and Christmas tree decorated with bright toys. "The holiday comes to us..." what is Christmas without the "lebkuchen" - all the Christmas cookies that are baked in every house in Germany and give to neighbors and friends. Our family is no exception, I also indulge in their favorite Christmas snacks. Bake a lot at once and of different types.

Cooking
That's what we need for cooking.
Mix Honey, sugar, butter and cream in a single scoop.
And put in a water bath to completely dissolve the butter and sugar.
The resulting mass mix cranberries and
grind in a mixer.
Knead from the sifted flour, baking powder, condiments for Lebkuchen (includes cinnamon, nutmeg, coriander, cloves, ginger, fennel, anise, pepper, cardamom), honey - cranberry mixture and brown sugar elastic dough. Leave the pastry for an hour in the fridge. In this time, prepare two more kinds of cookies, but about them later.
So, the dough has cooled down. Roll it to a thickness of 4 mm, but can be thicker. And cut molds figurines, I had hearts. Yes, the dough suggest to roll between the two films, as the dough is very sticky.
Preheat the oven to 180 degrees and bake our cookies for 15 minutes, well, in any case not longer, otherwise you'll overdry it, and we will have no cookies, and crackers.
Melt the chocolate in a water bath and dip to our gingerbread, spread on foil and wait until the chocolate hardens. To keep best in a tin box. Photo cookies somewhere smeared with chocolate, the handiwork of impatient households.)))
