Gingerbread Men



I made these gingerbread men on Monday as I thought it would be a nice thing to do with the children before they went back to school. However, it didn't quite work out like that, and I ended doing most of the work!
Although we decorated some of the men traditionally, the best fun was had decorating the others with white chocolate and jelly tots. They looked a real mess, but tasted delicious!
The most difficult thing about making them was getting the thickness just right. Too thin and they are too crunchy, too thick and they are too soft. We had a mixture of both.
We gave them a score of 8.0
p.s Make sure you grease the trays well, or they stick, like the man below. We called him Charles 1 - Tom is studying him for history so we let him have that one!
