London – The chefs inside Buckingham Palace, the Queen’s official residence, released their second annual official Christmas recipe to the public. This year, we’re baking gingerbread ornaments for your Christmas tree! 

Last year, Head Chef Mark Flanagan shared this mince pie recipe with us. 

Once the icing is dry, loop some string or ribbon through the hole and hang them on the Christmas tree. They make a great project to work on with the kids – add decorations like edible glitter, Smarties and Jelly Tots. 

The traditional recipe is easy enough to make at home, but I don’t think that we could ever get them this perfect!

When the family is altogether on Christmas morning, you can nibble on the cookies with a cup of tea. Just remember to keep them out of reach of the family dog, who may think these biscuits are just for her!
