Back To All Recipes

- Put the sugar, golden syrup and water in a small pan and bring to the boil stirring all the time.
- Add the butter and bicarbonate of soda and stir until well combined and the butter melted.
- Sieve the flour into a bowl and then stir in the hot butter mixture. Mix together until you have a firm, smooth dough. If it seems a bit soft add a little more flour.

- Lightly flour your surface and roll the dough to about the thickness of a pound coin.
- Cut out the cookies and place on the baking trays (lined with baking paper).
- Bake in the hot oven for 7 – 10 minutes until lightly golden.
- Transfer to a wire rack to cool.
- When cool, decorate as desired with royal or glace icing.
