Gingersnaps
Original recipe from www.chef-in-training.com which I have converted to thermomix. The originals are flat but mine didn't flatten but still taste really nice and don't break your teeth. If you like ginger, it's hard to stop at one.

Ingredients
125g butter
180g sugar
100g golden syrup
1 egg
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon ground cloves
½ teaspoon salt
1½ teaspoons bicarb soda
340g plain flour
½ cup sugar extra for rolling

Method
1. Preheat oven to 175° C.

2. Cream butter and sugar 2 minutes speed 4, scraping down when required.  Add egg and syrup and mix 30 seconds speed 4.  Add ginger, cinnamon, cloves, salt, baking soda and flour and knead 30 seconds until just combined.

3. Roll into tablespoon sized balls and roll each ball in extra sugar. Repeat for all the dough.

4. Place on baking sheet lined with baking paper and bake for 13-15 minutes.

We love ginger in our house, so I was happy when I came across this recipe. These are lovely biscuits and won't last long as everyone is eating them

I've missed this wonderful sounding recipe. As they don't break your teeth they will be a must bake here. I find bought Ginger nuts like eating a rock.
