Filled Gingerbread
Lets start the Christmas season with this filled gingerbread. We love filled gingerbread, very soft and moist.
My mum loved to bake this gingerbread and it was eaten up very quickly, just like today. 🙂
It tastes best if you store it in a cookie tin for a few days. And will keep for about 4 weeks, if not eaten before. 🙂
