Method:
- Preheat oven to 180°C conventional (160°C fan forced). Line 4 oven trays with baking paper.
- Use an electric beater to beat butter and sugar until pale and creamy. Add CSR treacle and egg yolks and beat until combined. Sift flour, ginger, mixed spice, and bicarbonate of soda and mix to a dough. Turn onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth.
- Roll dough between two sheets of baking paper to 5mm thickness on oven trays. Refrigerate for 30 mins. Cut your desired cubby house shape out of the dough. Place on a baking tray.
- Bake gingerbread for 10-15 mins or until lightly browned. Allow to cool.

His mum, Anastasia, said it was the perfect choice:
“We wanted something he would always have every day and make new memories with.”
