Ingredients

  • 125 grams almonds
  • 200 grams salted butter
  • 180 grams sugar
  • 140 grams Golden Syrup
  • 2 teaspoons ginger
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 2 teaspoons ground cloves
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 360 grams all-purpose flour

Method

  • Chop the almonds roughly.
  • Stir together the butter, sugar, syrup, spices, baking soda, flour, and chopped almonds. Put the dough on your baking surface and work it until it is supple.
  • Split in half and shape two thick rolls, about 1 1/2 inches wide. Wrap in plastic and chill for a few hours or overnight.
  • Preheat the oven to 345° F. Remove the rolls, one at a time, and cut into thin slices. Place the cookies on lined or buttered cookie sheets and bake for 10 to 12 minutes. The cookies should be golden brown and have a bit of a crunch.
