Instructions
In a microwavable bowl, melt the butter and syrup until incorporated, set aside to cool a little. Add the eggs and mix until just incorporated.
Now add the sugar, but don’t mix too much – just allow the sugar to be seeped through with the moisture.
Sift flour, baking soda, crème of tartar, ginger and salt in a mixing bowl and add the wet ingredients.
Mix the ingredients together, cover and refrigerate for an hour.
When cooled, roll dough into small balls, dunk it in white sugar and arrange on baking trays – push down with a fork or fingers.
Bake for 12 minutes at 180 degrees Celsius; remove from pans and leave to cool.
