Method/steps

Preheat oven to 180 C (Fan), lightly grease 2 baking trays with butter
Chop crystalised ginger quite finely
Whizz butter in a deep bowl with an electric hand-whisk, gradually adding sugar, cream well (3-4 mins – you can also do this by hand with a spatula, just takes longer)
Sieve flour into the bowl, mix well and then add other ingredients and mix again (to make a sticky dough)
Shape dough into 20 walnut size balls, lay on tray giving them enough space to spread.
Bake for 12-15 mins, they will look a little pale and will be very soft but they firm up out of the oven
Once firmed up (3-4 mins) transfer to wire rack to cool – can be stored in an airtight box for up to a week

Additional tips

Wrap a few up in tissue and a ribbon and give as little gifts.
