GINGERBREAD BOXES
From a national supermarkets Christmas magazine. They suggest filling with gold truffle balls but any sweet/lolly/chocolate would do, I also think this would be a good one for Easter and filled with mini Easter eggs.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 180C or 160C fan forced.
- Line 2 large baking trays with non-stick baking paper.
- Using electric beaters, beat butter and sugar until light and creamy and then add golden syrup and egg yolk and beat until combined.
- Add sifted flour, ginger and bicarbonate of soda, using a knife to mix until evenly combined.
- Gather dough together and turn out onto a sheet of non-stick baking paper.
- Divide the dough into 2 even portions, wrap one portion in cling wrap and set aside.
- Roll the other portion out to a rectangle about 26cm x 18cm and trim the sides to give straight lines, but don't make it any small than 24cm x 16cm.
- Cut dough into 12 pieces (four rows of three).
- Transfer pieces to one of the prepared trays, leaving a little room between them for spreading.
- Place trays in the fridge and chill while you roll out and cut the other piece of dough as you did the first.
- Bake first tray for 10 minutes, while chilling the second tray, then bake that tray for 10 minutes.
- Leave on the trays for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Whisk egg white until frothy, then gradually add sifted icing sugar to make a stiff paste.
- Place paste into a small plastic piping bag and snip off the end and pipe this icing on the outside of joins of the square to cover any gaps and then decorate with cachous.
- Pipe a cross onto the box tops and decorate and ;leave to set.
- Fill with chosen sweets.

Steps:
- In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugars until fluffy, about 1 minute. With the mixer running, add molasses, corn syrup, vanilla and orange extract.
- Add the eggs, one at a time, beating until mixture is well combined. In a large bowl, combine remaining ingredients with a whisk.
- Add flour mixture gradually to creamed mixture-the dough will be very stiff, so I used my hands to get all the flour incorporated.
- Divide the dough into thirds and wrap in plastic wrap. Chill overnight.
- Remove dough from the fridge and let stand at room temperature about 1 1/2 hours.
- Cover the outside of any ovenproof bowl, with tin foil, bringing foil over the edges to the inside. Make sure foil is on very smoothly. Spray the entire bowl with a non-stick cooking spray and set aside.
- On floured surface, roll a third of the dough into a circle 3/16-inch thick. Immediately lift dough and press on to outside of bowl, molding firmly to shape of bowl without stretching it. I use the palms of my hands to smooth any cracks.
- Trim dough around the edge of bowl with sharp knife, then using a cookie cutter, like a heart or a star, cut out stars around the lipped edge of the bowl about 1 1/2 inches apart.
- Refrigerate bowl for 1 1/2 hours; this firms up the dough.
- Place inverted bowl on an ungreased baking sheet and bake at 350°F for 20-30 minutes, or until firm to the touch.
- Allow the gingerbread to cool on bowl.
- When completely cool, carefully loosen foil and lift foil and gingerbread shell off the bowl. Peel off foil from shell.
- A tip I have learned is to use smaller bowls--much easier to remove. I broke a large one. Have fun, I did!

GINGERBREAD
My grandmother first used this recipe for gingerbread over 100 years ago. I remember that the kitchen smelled like heaven when Grandmother baked her gingerbread. The only thing better was when she took it out of the oven and served it with a generous topping of fresh whipped cream! -Ellouise Halstead, Union Grove, Wisconsin

- Make gingerbread: In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, salt, ginger, cinnamon, cloves and nutmeg. In a large saucepan over medium-high heat, melt shortening. Whisk in sugar and molasses; mix well. Remove pan from heat and stir in flour mixture until combined.
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment. While still warm, roll out dough on a floured sheet of parchment to about 1/8-inch thickness. Use a knife and a clean ruler to cut dough into 12 3-inch squares (for bottoms and lids), 12 4-by-2 1/2-inch rectangles (for tall boxes) and 12 2 1/2-inch squares (for short boxes). Reroll scraps as needed. Transfer to baking sheets, about 1 inch apart.
