Here's the recipe if someone wants to make it. My aunt (Nee Masi) gave it to my mum.
3 tablespoons golden syrup
75g castor sugar
1 tablespoon water
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon mixed spice
1 1/2 teaspoon ginger
75g butter
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
225g plain flour
Preheat oven to 180 degrees
Place golden syrup, sugar, water and spices into large saucepan
Remove from heat and add butter and baking soda
Add flour a little at a time until mixture makes a firm dough
Put in fridge to chill for a few minutes, then roll to desired thickness depending on how crunchy you would like them.
Once cool cut out shapes and bake for approximately 12 minutes, or until crisp.
Cool! Let's make them in November when Nee masi's back!

Hi Shaan,
ReplyDeleteWow I loved reading your instructions about gingerbread men.
I liked how you wrote all the ingredients and then had really clear steps. All of your instructions has action verbs like add, place, remove, cut which tell the reader what to do.
Keep up the great writing!
