Good Gingernuts
Dear. Aunt Daisy, I am enclosing a Gingernut Recipe, which I used for soldiers’ biscuit tins in the last war, and also in this. Anyone can make a success of them, they are so easy to make. Gingernuts~-One pound of light brown sugar; 21% Ibs. of flour; %4 Ib. butter; 1 oz. ginger; 2 Ibs. golden syrup warmed but not hot. No rising, and no more liquid. Cream the butter and sugar, add the syrup, and flour, etc. Knead it well, make into little balls,
flatten them, and put on cold floured trays. Bake at 375°. They keep well, Possibly, many of your Chain members will have this recipe, for during the last war, good recipes were rarer than they are to-day, and we used to pass them on from one end of Now Zealand to the other. But perhaps the young folk may like to try them.
