HARD GINGER NUT BISCUITS
This recipe for hard ginger nut biscuits is possibly one of the oldest ones I have in my possession. My English grandma used it many years ago. The cookies are fabulous for dunking. [Recipe originally submitted to Allrecipes.co.uk]

GINGERNUT BISCUITS
Another recipe from the family cookbooks that I inherited from my Mother and my Grandmother. I can almost smell these baking when I close my eyes and think of Gran. A "memory" recipe as well as a yummy treat. If you make these into very little balls, about the size of an oversized marble or a gobstopper then you will get the cookies as shown in my photograph, and the centers will be ever so slightly chewy. These are traditionally a very hard crisp biscuit (cookie) made for dunking into tea or coffee, and the bigger you make the balls the crunchier the end result. Usually I store these in an airtight container to keep them crisp, but if you made some of these crunchier and you want them REALLY chewy after all, just leave some out of the container for a while and hey presto... divine which ever way you prefer them. ZWT REGION: New Zealand.

GINGERNUT BISCUITS
A New Zealand biscuit (cookie). Golden Syrup is becoming more available in the US. I can find it in the British aisle of my grocery store and recently found it in the baking aisle. If you cannot find Golden Syrup, you may sub 2 parts light corn syrup to 1 part honey. These should get really hard and are often dunked in tea. I haven't made these yet, so I don't know how many it yields. The cooking time is per batch. I have posted the mixed spice recipe I found to go along with this if you cannot find mixed spice near you.

Steps:
- In a medium to large size pot slowly melt the first four ingredients (butter, sugar, golden syrup and milk) stirring constantly until all are blended together. Don't worry about dissolving every last bit of sugar.
- Remove from heat and then add baking soda and stir until dissolved. Leave to cool for 5 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 150°C.
- Sift in the flour and ginger and mix well. The mixture will be quite loose.
- Roll into small balls and put onto a baking tray. Flatten with the heel of the hand, allowing room for spreading.
- Bake in a slow oven, 150C - 13-15 minutes. I bake these on the rack above the middle of the oven. Simply because my oven tends to be a bit hot on the bottom.
