Lebkuchen - Christmas Cakey Cookies! | Cupcake Jemma | CupcakeJemma

What's Lebkuchen you ask? Lebkuchen are a honey sweetened German Cookie packed with Christmas Spices, Nuts and Citrus Zests. They are Cookies, BUT with a soft cakey centre that actually improves over time so best to bake a day ahead! Lebkuchen are really quick to make, and easy too, so a fab recipe to be baking before the big day arrives. If you don't have all the spices listed, don't worry! Just go with what you have.

Thank you so much for your continued support, for watching, subscribing and baking along - it means everything to us! From Jemma, Sally, Sam and all of us here at Crumbs & Doilies we wish you a very, very Merry Christmas!
