Gingerbread Crust Sweet Pastry
Ingredients:
170g butter, softened
85g brown sugar
1 small egg
250g standard plain flour
20g gingerbread spice mixture
Method:
In a large mixing bowl, lightly beat butter and brown sugar with a wooden spoon until a light, creamy consistency has been achieved. Add egg and mix until combined. Sift flour and gingerbread spice into the creamed mixture and mix to a paste. Only mix until paste comes clean off the bowl. Be careful not to over-mix or pastry will become too elastic and doughy.
Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes or, even better, overnight.
Gently re-work pastry before using, taking care to ensure it remains cold and firm.
