Step 1

Preheat the oven to 160C/140C Fan/Gas Line two baking trays with baking paper. Place the butter and golden syrup in a saucepan. Heat gently, stirring, until melted.

Step 2

Place the flour, ground ginger, chopped ginger, bicarbonate of soda and sugars in a mixing bowl. Mix well, then stir in the melted ingredients. Add the egg and bring the mixture together to form a dough.

Step 3

Divide into 16 equal pieces and roll with your hands into small balls. Place on the baking trays and slightly flatten to about 1cm/½in thick. Bake for about 25 minutes, or until golden and firm around the edges.

Step 4

Leave to firm up on the baking trays for a few minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
