Method

Preheat oven to 180°C conventional (160°C fan forced). Line 3 oven trays with baking paper.
Use an electric beater to beat the butter and Chelsea Brown Sugar in a bowl until pale and creamy.
Add Chelsea Treacle and egg yolk and beat until combined. Sift the flour, ginger, mixed spice and bicarbonate of soda and mix to a dough. Turn onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth.
Roll dough between two sheets of baking paper to 5mm thickness. Refrigerate for 30 minutes. Cut dough into 6cm x 4cm rectangles. Round corners of one end to create a tombstone shape. Space 5cm apart on trays. Sprinkle with Chelsea Demerara Sugar and bake for 8 -10 minutes or until browned. Cool on trays. Once cool, decorate with writing gels.
