For further preparation of gingerbread we will use baking powder TM Dr. Oetker
Add baking powder and gingerbread spices to the dough, mix well and add the rest of the flour to knead the dough, it should not be hard, soft and not stick to your hands.
Roll out the dough into a layer 3 cm thick and cut out gingerbread cookies using a notch.
Bake gingerbread cookies in the oven on a greased baking sheet at 180 degrees for 20-30 minutes.
Let the browned gingerbreads cool.

Using a pastry brush, coat the gingerbread with glaze.
Leave the gingerbread cookies on the board for 3-4 hours to allow the glaze to dry.

Sprinkle the gingerbread cookies immediately, before the glaze dries.
