Ingredients:
- 125g/4 ½oz butter
- 100g/4 oz dark brown sugar
- 60g/2 oz golden syrup

- 1 tsp bicarbonate of soda

Method:
Heat oven to 170C/330F. Prepare a couple of baking trays with lining.
Melt butter, sugar and syrup in a pan, stirring to prevent burning or sticking until all ingredients are combined. Remove from heat.
Sieve flour, bicarbonate and ginger together in a bowl. Pour in the wet ingredients and mix thoroughly to form a stiff dough.
Chill for 10 minutes in the fridge. Flour your work surface and roll out the dough to about 5mm. Take your choice of Christmas cutters and cut out your biscuit shapes.
Place the biscuits in batches on the trays and pop into the oven.Bake for 9-10 minutes until light golden brown.
Remove from the oven and leave to cool on a wire rack before decorating with icing, glitter, silver balls -whatever you want!
