Tip

Although each batch of biscuits will only take aroud 5 - 10 mins to cook, you will need to do quite a few trays - so allow for a good 40 mins total rolling and baking time.

    I've made this recipe a few times now. As I'm not a big fan of ginger myself I use half the amount listed and they are just perfect!
