    These are perfect, thanks so much for sharing. I used 2.5 times the ginger and they have such a lovely gingery punch! Also used coconut sugar instead of raw sugar which worked well.

    I've been using this recipe for over 5 years. I roll the dough into a log about 4cm thick, freeze and allow to defrost enough to allow me to cut into discs about 5mm thick. I've also cooked them and frozen after cooking and both are successful. I thought everyone would be sick of them by now, but I'm hearing the opposite - they're a standard inclusion in my Christmas hampers. Thanks so much for an absolute winner of a recipe!

    Thank you for this wonderful and simple recipe.

    Made it today, added the extra tablespoon of ginger powder as many suggested, definitely will make again. They ended up crispy on the edges and soft in the centre...perfect.

    Fabulous recipe, thank you!
    I made the following changes:
    - 40g golden syrup
    - 60 g coconut sugar
    -35g ground ginger - this made them ridic gingery, just how we like them!
    Rolled some of them out to about 5 mm thick and they were perfect after 15 minutes on low tray.

    Really yummy and easy to make biscuits!

    After reading comments, I ended up using 2T of dry ginger in my recipe - I think 1T will not be enough. I will try 3T next time to compare, but 2T should be the minimum for ginger biscuits, I think. (EDIT: I have now tried it with 3T and the vote from myself and the kids is that 2T is best. 3T is just that little bit too "gingerful" (!) and the biscuits seem a bit drier.)

    I will also make a double batch of these, as they are very moreish!

    After baking, I keep some in a glass sealed jar and the rest go in the freezer for storage, to grab out whenever we are running low in the glass jar.

    Rolling them in exactly 1 teaspoon portion sizes meant I ended up with 50 biscuits, which works out to 48 calories per biscuit.

    Loved this. I too added an extra heaped tablespoon of Ginger. And because I was silly enough to pour the Golden Syrup from the container into the bowl, I ended up with 50g. But I would now do that next time on purpose, as they have turned out really delicious. Thanks for the great recipe.

    Submitted by Whitefern on 26. February 2019 - 11:31.

    Just made a batch. We don't use a lot of sugar so I always cut down there but left the liquid sugar at 30g. I found that using a slower speed creamed mine better in the TM5. Not being too much of a baking whizz I figured it was to do with the smaller bowl of the TM3.

    They've hardened up nicely and have a good crunch. My husband wants me to add more ginger next time. Very pleased with these - thanks!

    I stuck to the 40 pieces to keep them calorie friendly.

    I also doubled the ground ginger.

    As others mentioned, a bit crumbly but it didn't matter as they very easily rolled into a ball.

    I haven't tried them yet but they sure smell good.

    Simple and delish! I used Maple Syrup (not as thick as GS) and added chopped dates. I also drizzled a little extra Maple Syrup when mixing as the mixture looked a little crumbly. I love ginger so added another 3/4 tbspn. Mmmm Smile

    Doubled the ginger... Perfect!  My mixture was quite dry and crumbly so ended up adding extra butter at the end which worked fine... Think I had something touching my thermomix when I was measuring the dry ingredients which must have put the scales out.
