Directions

1
Heat honey, butter and sugar while stirring over medium heat until everything is dissolved. Let it cool down for about 10 minutes. Mix 350 g flour, cocoa, baking powder and spice in a bowl. Add egg and the honey mixture, knead everything with the dough hooks of the hand mixer to a smooth dough. Cover and leave to cool for about 15 minutes.
2
Draw a stocking (approx. 6 cm wide and 20 cm high) for the template on cardboard and cut it out. Preheat the oven: Electric cooker: 175 °C/circulating air: 150 °C/gas: stage 2. Roll out the dough on some flour to a thickness of approx. 1⁄2 cm. Put the template on top and cut out about 8 stockings one after the other
3
Place the stockings on two baking trays lined with baking paper. Use a medium-sized punch or a straw to make a hole in the top of each stocking to hang it up. Bake the trays one after the other for about 17 minutes and let them cool down
4
Mix icing sugar, lemon juice and 1-2 teaspoons of warm water to a spreadable glaze. Spread it on the Santa stockings and decorate them. Let them dry. To hang them up, pull colourful ribbons through the holes in the stockings and tie them into a bow
