Spiced Cookies​

​

​

A recipe stolen from my mum. I'm pretty sure any combo of spices would be good, but here we are using cinnamon and ginger. They are particularly good coffee dunkers!

Ingredients 
 

• 230G PLAIN FLOUR

• 100G SOFT BROWN SUGAR

• 110G GOLDEN SYRUP

• PINCH SALT

• 1TSP BICARBONATE OF SODA

• 1 HEAPED TSP GROUND GINGER

• 3/4 TSP CINNAMON

• 80G UNSALTED BUTTER (YOU CAN ADD A LITTLE MORE IF YOU PREFER A MORE STICKY DOUGH)

 

Pre-heat the oven to 180°C and grease 2 large baking trays.

​

Mix together the flour, sugar, salt, bicarbonate of soda, ginger and cinnamon in a bowl ..

 

Add the golden syrup and the butter, and mix together well until it forms a soft workable dough. (If it is too crumbly you can add a little more butter, or if it is too sticky add a little more flour)

 

Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to about 1cm thick and use a cutter of your choice to cut them into shapes,

 

Lay out the shapes on the baking trays allowing a little room for them to expand.

 

Cook for around 10-15 minutes depending on how chewy you want them (the longer time the harder they will be)
