3.53 oz butter, 5.29 oz light brown sugar

0.88 oz water, 8.82 oz all-purpose flour, 1/2 tsp gingerbread spice, 3/4 tsp baking powder, 1/8 tsp sea salt
HOW TO USE THE WOODEN MOLD: Coat your wooden mold with flour, remove the excess by tipping it out. Then, place 2 / 3 tablespoons of dough inside the mold, ensuring it is pressed all around the corners and that the dough is leveled as much as possible. Finally, give the mold a few taps on the sides to help it come out.
Place your cookies directly onto yourBonmat and let them dry at room temperature for about 30 minutes NOTE: This will ensure that they do not loose their shape when baked.
BAKE!
Preheat oven to 350F/180C. Bake for 9 minutes at 350F/180C. (Every oven heats differently, monitor your cookies from 8 minutes). It is ready when they don't look quite done and barely golden around the edge, the top staying soft.
Once your Gingerbread Cookies in Wooden Molds are out of the oven, let them cool down completely as is on your Baking Sheet. When ready, slide them onto a serving plate to share or store them in a tin metal box (They stay fresh up to 3 weeks). Bon Appétit & Happy Holidays!
