My English cousin in Yorkshire sent me this old-fashioned recipe for buttery ginger cookies (or biscuits if you're British). You'll love the taste! Ingredients:
2-1/2 cups biscuit/baking mix or king arthur unbleached self-rising flour |
1/2 cup sugar |
1-1/4 to 1-1/2 teaspoons ground ginger |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
pinch salt |
1/2 egg, beaten |
1/2 cup corn syrup or maple syrup |
1/4 cup butter, cubed |
Directions:
1. In a bowl, combine baking mix or flour, sugar, ginger, soda and salt. Using hands, rub egg into mixture.
2. In a saucepan, warm syrup and butter; stir into batter. Let stand for 3-4 minutes, then knead. Roll heaping teaspoonfuls into small balls. Place 2 in. apart on greased baking sheets.
3. Bake at 325° for 12-15 minutes. Cookies will flatten and crackle when done. Yield: 3 dozen.
