    Make these soft gingerbread cookies to take on your travels if you suffer from travel sickness - the calming effects that ginger has on the stomach should help to relieve the symptoms. Perfect for kids too. They should be lightly golden and still a little soft when you take them out - they will firm up a little as they cool down but should still remain lovely and soft. Makes 40 stars (1.5")

    Ingredients

    • 125g plain flour
    • 50g brown sugar
    • 50g unsalted butter, softened
    • 1 tsp fresh grated ginger
    • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
    • 1/4 tsp bicarbonate of soda
    • 2 tbsp golden syrup
    • 2 tbsp honey
    • 25ml water

    Directions

    1. Beat the syrup with the honey and water. Set aside.
    2. Cream together the butter and sugar, then mix into the syrup mixture.
    3. In a large bowl, sift in the flour, then mix in the ginger, cinnamon and soda.
    4. Add in the wet mixture, then start to knead to bring together into a dough. Wrap and chill for 30 minutes.
    5. Roll out the dough to about 1/4 inch thickness. Stamp out 40 stars (or as many as you can!).
    6. Preheat the oven to 170 degrees C. Transfer the cookies to a lined baking tray and chill again for 10 minutes if possible, before baking for about 10 minutes.
