Ginger biscuit recipe for the weekend

1. Beat together the butter and sugar. Add the eggs and syrup and mix well. Sift the dry ingredients and 4ml salt together and add to the butter mixture. Mix until a soft dough is formed.

2. Roll the dough into small balls and place on a greased baking tray – leave enough room between the biscuits. Bake in a preheated oven for 12 to 15 minutes.

3. Leave the biscuits to cool for a few minutes on the baking tray then transfer them to a metal rack.
