Cardamom nuts (Grandma's gingerbread)

These “fake” Pepper nuts (as I like to call them) comes from my husband's grandmother, and in his family they call them pepper nuts. They taste super good, but since the only spice that is in, is cardamom, I think cardamom nuts must be the correct name.

It has been the tradition to meet up with my husband's mother and his siblings and children to bake gingerbread every year. “Grandma” used to make the dough the day in advance and roll it in bars and ask the cool. We have tried to maintain the tradition since we lost “Grandma” a few years ago, but this year we just have not reached the.

But I've made dough and baked them together with my boy and his companion. The boys ended up also doing someone where they rolled each one so that they looked like the gingerbread we buy, usually we cut them just flat of dejrullerne.

Is the dough too dry pour any little extra cream and it is too sticky put a little more flour.
