And the best thing: according to most recipes, it can be made without baking, which means you have the magic in 15 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here is a simple and spicy recipe that is also perfect for recycling leftover Christmas gingerbread (or simple cookies).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\ud83c\udf84 Gingerbread Balls (No Baking)<br>I. Ingredients<br>Ingredient Quantity Note<br>Crushed biscuits (e.g. household) 25 dkg You can also use gingerbread!<br>Powdered sugar 10 dkg<br>Vanilla sugar 1 package<br>Unsweetened cocoa powder 2 tablespoons (sifted)<br>Gingerbread spice mix 2 teaspoons (sifted)<br>Rum 1 tablespoon Or rum flavor \/ orange juice<br><br>Margarine\/Butter 12.5 dkg Room temperature, soft<br>Milk Approx. $0.5$ dl As much as the dough absorbs<br>For rolling Ground nuts, cocoa powder, or coconut flakes<br>II. Preparation<br>Mixing: In a large bowl, measure together the crushed biscuits, powdered sugar, vanilla sugar, cocoa powder and gingerbread spice mix. Mix thoroughly.<br><br>Adding Flavors: Add the soft margarine\/butter and rum (or rum flavor \/ orange juice). Start kneading.<br>Assembly: Gradually add the milk until you get a well-kneaded, soft, but not sticky mass. About $0.5$ dl should be enough.<br>Shaping: With wet hands (so it&#8217;s less sticky), shape it into walnut-sized balls.<br>Rolling: Roll the balls in any topping you like (ground walnuts, cocoa powder, coconut flakes, or the remaining crushed biscuits mixed with a little extra gingerbread spice).<br><br>Cooling: Place in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour so that the margarine hardens and the balls become firmer.<br>Tip: If you have stray, hard Christmas gingerbread in the box, grind $10$ dkg of it and replace the biscuits with it! And instead of rum, a little apricot jam can also help achieve a real Christmas flavor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Enjoy this quick, festive treat!
