Lebkuchen ist ein traditionelle deutsche Backware, die schon seit Jahrhunderten zu Weihnachten gebacken wird. Es gibt unzählige Rezepte und Interpretationen wie der perfekte Lebkuchen sein muss. Ich mag ihn am liebsten ganz traditionell, so wie ihn meine Oma immer gebacken hat: ein weicher Kern, mit leckerem Honig und warmen Gewürzen und einem knackigen Schokoladenüberzug.

Lebkuchen, German gingerbread cookies, are soft in the center & slightly crispy around edges. Popular around Oktoberfest, Christmas, & Valentine's Day.
