Ginger Biscuits

To redeem myself from yesterday I've made some ginger biscuits.


8oz SR Flour
4oz Butter
1tsp Bicarb
3 tsp Ground Ginger
4oz Soft Brown Sugar
2 large tbsp Golden Syrup

Add flour, ginger and bicarb into bowl, then rub in butter.

Add sugar and warmed syrup, and mix well till stiff consistency.

Roll into equal sized balls with floured hands, and place on greased tray, well apart, as they spread.
Flatten with a fork, and bake for aprox 10 minutes, Gas 5.

Remove from trays while still hot, and place on wire rack.

Don't worry if they spread together and misshape, use cookie cutter while still on tray to tidy up if you want.

Enjoy!
