Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180ºC/160ºC fan and line a 8"/20cm round tin with parchment paper, and leave to the side for now.
In a large bowl, melt the butter. Add in the two sugars, and whisk for about 2 minutes so the sugar starts to dissolve and the mixture is smooth.
Add in the egg and the vanilla extract, and whisk again briefly until smooth.
Add the plain flour, bicarbonate, salt, cornflour, ground ginger, ground cinnamon, and ground nutmeg.
Mix the mixture until a cookie dough is formed.
Add the chocolate chips/chunks and mix again.
Press the mixture into the bottom of the tin and press down.
Bake the cookie in the oven for 25-27 minutes, until the top of the cookie looks ‘dry’ and it's not wobbling!
If you want, carefully press in some decoration now, such as some sprinkles like I did.
Leave the cookie to cool in the tin for about 30 minutes, then leave to cool fully on a wire rack.
Once the cookie has cooled, beat the unsalted butter for a minute or two to loosen and soften.
Add the icing sugar, vanilla extract and green food colouring and beat again until smooth.
Pipe around the edge of the cookie however you want, I did a rope piping using a 2d closed star piping tip.
Add some sprinkles and anything else you fancy.
Notes
This cookie will be best eaten on the day of baking or the day after, but will last 4-5 days.
If baking into 9"/23cm tin for a thinner but larger cookie, bake for 20 minutes.
If you can't access Cornflour - use 25g more flour, but the texture will change.
You can make the cookie chocolate themed by using 225g plain flour, and 35g cocoa powder.
