Products for cooking:

In a small saucepan heat the honey+sugar+oil (do not boil!), stir to dissolve the sugar, allow the mixture to cool at room temperature. Lightly whisk the egg whites with a pinch of salt, add 3-5 drops of almond flavoring, stir in the cooled honey-butter mass. In zapesochny bowl stir together the flour+chopped almonds+baking powder, pour in the liquid mixture, knead first with a spoon, then form into ball with hands, put dough in the package, remove in the cold for a couple of hours, and then...

On the working surface, sprinkled with flour, roll out chilled dough to a thickness of 0.5-0.7 cm Cut out gingerbread blanks (form "star" 7-9 mm in diameter). Form of "stars" dwarfs: a "stick"- up, "legs"-the straighter down. Bake at 200 degrees, for 5-7 minutes, cookies should slightly be pinking up by now.

The finished gingerbread pieces cool completely. Next, decorate the gingerbread, the sugar-protein frosting and pastry decorations, very exciting to bring to a "work" of kids.

Sugar-protein frosting: in a tall plastic Cup (1 liter) pour the chilled protein and lemon juice and mix with a mixer without stopping the mixer, pour parts powdered sugar to your desired consistency of glaze. Set aside a small portion of the glaze into the Cup, "touch up" with food coloring. White and hot pink icing put in cooking bags, decorate gingerbread with icing and Golden pearls.

Bon appetit!!!
