Unsure what happened here as I followed your recipe to the letter but I had to add more flour as it was so sticky...so in all made over 70 snaps/stars/gingerbread-men/christmas trees with it...they taste absolutely lovely and I am including a picture at the top for you...i made small stars big stars,small snaps large snaps.....so please do get back to me as I had sooo much and I find it hard to believe you only said you get 24 out of this,could you recheck it for me please...as I said at the top I have included some pictures of the vast amount which I made...they taste divine though,thank you very much the only thing I did not have was the dark brown soft sugar so I used the light brown soft 19th january 2015 i tried this recipe agaain and you need 400grams plain flour otherwise it is far too sticky to do anything with but it is great then,have got some more pictures at the top to show you - 21 Dec 2014
