This recipe for hard ginger nut biscuits is possibly one of the oldest ones I have in my possession. My English grandma used it many years ago. The cookies are fabulous for dunking. [Recipe originally submitted to @site_name.co.uk]
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons golden syrup
- 8 ounces self-rising flour
- 4 ounces white sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- 4 ounces margarine
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 180 degrees F (82 degrees C). Grease 2 baking sheets or line with parchment paper.
Step 2
Warm golden syrup in a saucepan over low heat, about 2 minutes. Allow to cool slightly in the saucepan.
Step 3
Combine flour, sugar, and ginger in a bowl. Rub in margarine. Mix in baking soda. Stir flour mixture into the golden syrup in the saucepan until dough is well combined.
Step 4
Take a small, walnut-sized piece of dough and roll it into a ball; continue with remaining dough. Space biscuits evenly apart on the prepared baking sheets.
Step 5
Bake in the preheated oven until biscuits are slightly cracked on the surface, 10 to 15 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.
