Nance

Followed the recipe perfectly, did not turn out like ginger kisses more like flat ginger cookies, still nice but didn't have that sponge texture.

Lilliana

They tasted amazing! They didn't make many though. I suggest you only make half the filling, I had heaps left over. They weren't perfect, but I'll certainly make them again.

Courtney

These are amazing I make them all the time so much better than the ones from the supermarket. Is there any way to make this recipe into a cake? Because that would be amazing

Zara

Tastes amazing and so easy to make! I used the easy pour golden syrup and had no difficulties. I also added an extra teaspoon of ginger as two teaspoons didn't seem like enough, personally.

Kristen

Dangerously delicious.

These were amazing! I made with GF flour and the consistency was a bit different but so much more delicious than anything I could ever buy.

Method

Preheat oven to 170ºC/150ºC fan-forced. Line 3 large baking trays with baking paper.

Sift flours, ginger and Edmonds Baking Soda together. Using an electric mixer, beat Tararua Butter, Chelsea Caster Sugar and Chelsea Golden Syrup until light and fluffy. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating until combined after each addition. Beat on medium speed for 2 minutes or until creamy (mixture may appear curdled at this stage). Add half the flour mixture. Beat on low speed until combined. Repeat with remaining flour mixture. Stand for 5 minutes.

Spoon 2 level teaspoons of mixture, on top of each other, onto prepared tray. Repeat with remaining mixture, leaving 5cm between each for spreading. Bake, 1 tray at a time, for 13 to 15 minutes or until golden and just firm to touch. Cool on trays.

Make Filling : Using electric mixer, beat Tararua Butter until light and fluffy. Gradually beat in Chelsea Icing Sugar until well combined. Beat in Chelsea Golden Syrup. Spread 2 to 3 teaspoons of filling onto flat side of half of the biscuits. Sandwich with remaining biscuits. Serve.

Notes : Spooning teaspoons of mixture on top of each other will result in even-sized rounds.

Ginger kisses are best eaten on the day they're made.

Make these dinner-party worthy by using mascarpone and grated orange rind for the filling.
