- - rye flour - 370 g;
- - egg - 1 pc.;
- - butter - 50 g;
- - milk - 100 ml;
- - honey - 100 ml;
- - sugar - 2 tablespoons;

Instructions
Step 1
Pour the milk into a small saucepan, place it on the stove and heat it, but never bring it to a boil. In a bowl with warmed milk, add the following: soft butter, vinegar, as well as soda, honey and a chicken egg beaten with sugar. Stir everything thoroughly until you get a mass with a homogeneous consistency.
Step 2
Pour rye flour in small portions to the resulting mass. Knead the dough out of the mixture. When it's ready, send it to the refrigerator and keep it there for at least 2 hours.
Step 3
After several hours have passed, take the dough out of the refrigerator, lay it on the work surface and turn it with a rolling pin into a flat layer, the thickness of which is one centimeter. Cut the figures out of it with special cookie cutters or dishes with a round neck.
Step 4
After placing the figures from the dough on a baking sheet, send them to bake in the oven at a temperature of 190-200 degrees for about one quarter of an hour.
Step 5
While the rye gingerbread cookies are baking, prepare the icing to brush them over. To do this, make a solution of granulated sugar and water and place on the stove. Bring it to a boil, then cook for another 10 minutes over medium heat.
Step 6
Lubricate the cooled baked goods with the resulting sugar icing, and then send them back to the oven, the temperature of which is 50-60 degrees, for about half an hour. This will dry out the baked goods.
Step 7
After the time has elapsed, remove the treat from the oven and cool. Rye gingerbread is ready!
