Cream the butter,sugar and vanilla in a medium-sized bowl using electric beaters until pale and fluffy,then add the egg,beating until just combined. Sift in the flours and baking powder,add the ginger and mixed spice and stir with a wooden spoon to form a soft dough.
Shape teaspoons of the dough into balls,place on the prepared trays 4cm apart and flatten slightly. Bake for seven minutes,or until lightly golden around the edges. Allow to cool on the trays for a few minutes,then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Repeat with the remaining dough.
For the honey cream,beat the butter and icing sugar in a bowl using electric beaters until light and fluffy. Add the honey and mix to combine. On half of the cookies,spread three teaspoons of honey cream and sandwich them together with the other half.
In a small bowl combine the extra ginger and icing sugar and dust over the biscuits.
