Ginger bunny biscuits

Serves: 20
Cooking Time: 30 mins

Ingredients

  • 125g butter
  • 125ml (½ cup) muscovado sugar
  • 7,5ml (1½ tsp) ground ginger
  • 15ml (1 tbsp) glacé ginger, finely chopped
  • 300g (2½ cups) cake flour
  • 125ml (½ cup) golden syrup
  • ICING
  • 1 large egg white
  • 70g (½ cup) icing sugar
  • blue food colouring

Instructions

1

Preheat the oven to 180°C and line a baking tray with baking paper.

2

Cream the butter and sugar together until fluffy. Add the ground and chopped ginger, flour and syrup, and mix to form a smooth dough.

3

Roll the dough out on a lightly floured work surface to about 4mm thick. Cut out bunny shapes using a cookie cutter. Place the biscuits on the tray and bake until golden brown, about 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and leave to cool.

4

For the icing, whisk the egg white and icing sugar together until quite thick and add a drop of food colouring. Using a piping bag, pipe an outline and an eye on each biscuit.

Notes

If you want to thread a ribbon or cord through the biscuits, make a hole in the biscuits before baking.
