Ginger Nut Biscuits

Ingredients

200g butter, chopped

160g brown sugar

180g golden syrup

360g plain flour

6 tsp ginger

1 tsp cinnamon

1 tsp bicarb

Directions

Preheat oven to 180°C. Line 2 oven trays with baking paper.

In a small saucepan, combine butter, sugar and golden syrup. Stir over a low heat until melted and combined. Transfer to a large bowl.

Using an electric mixer, whisk mixture until light and fluffy. Allow to cool slightly.

Sift flour, spices and bi-carb together. Fold into butter mixture until well combined.

Roll tablespoonfuls of mixture into balls. Arrange on trays, allowing a little space between each. Flatten slightly with a fork.

Bake for 15-18 minutes, until golden. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.

Notes

Adjust the amount of ginger to your personal preference as 6 tsp is quite a strong ginger flavour
