Preheat the oven to 180° C. In a mixer, cream the butter with the sugar, honey, and egg yolk. Gradually add the flour, ground ginger, and cinnamon, mixing until a smooth dough is obtained. Cover with non-stick plastic wrap and refrigerate for 20 min. On a floured surface, roll out the dough to a thickness of 3mm, using a gingerbread man cookie cutter to cut out 10 pieces. Place on a baking sheet and bake for 15 min. Let cool and set aside. Form cookie sandwiches by filling with a tablespoon of Nutella. Set aside. For the icing, mix the powdered sugar with lemon juice. Place in a piping bag with a plain tip and decorate the cookies with the icing and melted chocolate. Let dry. Serve with milk.
