Sift the flour and all spices into a large bowl, add the vanilla extract and the butter.

Rub with the finger tips until you get a crumb like mixture.

Stir in the honey and mix in well with your hands to create a dough.

Wrap in cling film and pop in the fridge for 30 minutes to firm up a bit.

Preheat the oven to 180C/350F and line a baking sheet with baking parchment.

Remove dough from the fridge and roll out on a floured surface to about 5mm/1/4" thick.

Use any cookie cutter that you have to hand to cut out whatever shapes you want and stamp words on them too if you have a stamper.

Carefully lift the cookies on to the baking sheet and pop it into the fridge for 30 minutes to firm up again.

Remove from fridge and put straight into the preheated oven and bake for approximately 10-12 minutes or until just golden.

Take them out of the oven and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
