2.Add water, spice, bicarbonate and flour to the dough and put it in the fridge over the night.
3.Roll out a piece of the dough at the time. You can use for example heart shapes to form the cookie’s, let them fry in the oven for five minutes and then let them cool down on the pate.

If you break a gingerbread cookie in three parts then you can wish something. But if you tell someone what you wished for, you will get bad luck.
