List of Ingredients

4 Tbs butter
1/2 cup raw sugar
1 egg
2 1/2 cups favorite flour
1 tsp bicarbonate of soda
4 tsp ground ginger (I use around 6)
1 tsp ground cloves
2 tsp ground cinnamon
2 tsp ground nutmeg
3 Tbs golden syrup




Recipe



Cream butter and raw sugar, add egg, and mix. Add flour, soda, and spices, then golden syrup. Mix well (if you find that the mixture is a little dry, add 1/2 Tbs more golden syrup).

Roll mixture into teaspoon-sized balls (or bigger if you like), flatten slightly and place on cookie tray.

Bake for 10 minutes in a moderate oven (350F).

Yummy hot or cold.
