In the video, you will see that I use the Bimby. However, I will provide you with the steps to knead by hand. In a bowl, work the butter cut into pieces with the sugar and ginger until you obtain a sort of cream.
Add the egg and mix until absorbed. Combine the flour and cream. Knead until you obtain a smooth and homogeneous dough.
Delicious cookies that you can flavor as you like. I used ground ginger, but vanilla, cinnamon, etc., are also good. I decorated them with melted dark chocolate, but you can use colored sprinkles, sugar or hazelnut granules, etc.
Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and let it rest in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
Roll out the dough to a thickness of about 1 centimeter and cut the cookies with cookie cutters. Place them on a baking sheet covered with parchment paper.
Bake in a preheated static oven at 180 degrees for 15 minutes. Let them cool.
Melt the dark chocolate (I have an electric melting pot, but melting it in a bain-marie will suffice) and dip the cookies as desired. Let them cool on parchment paper and enjoy them for breakfast or a snack.
They remain crisp for several days in an airtight tin or glass container.
