From an old German cookbook. Layers of gingerbread, black currant jelly, optional marchpane (almond paste) and gingerbread, all cut into small squares and glazed with dark chocolate. Have not tried it so far because I usually buy them (with marchpane). If you make them, let me know how it worked. - The measurement for cloves and cardamom is actually 1 tip of a knife each. I guessed the amount of almond paste needed as well as the prep time. Posted at a forum request.

[email protected]The dominosteine gingerbread cookies were easy to make and turned out really pretty. However, they were a bit dry. I think I'll try adding some more butter or oil next time.

[email protected]These dominosteine gingerbread cookies were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try using less sugar next time.

[email protected]I'm not a huge fan of gingerbread, but these dominosteine cookies were surprisingly good. The apricot jam filling added a nice tartness that balanced out the sweetness of the gingerbread. Will definitely be making these again!
