I totally agree with one of the other reviewers, so easy to make but far too sweet. I think it is the golden syrup. I often make ginger nuts but use much less syrup. Luv the concept so will try to adapt it.
Krystina
I’m so confused! I made these, they smelt amazing but the biscuits themselves taste almost fizzy!
Not sure what it is but definitely odd
Lauren Matheson
Hi Krystina, sorry to hear they are fizzy. Possibly too much bicarb has been used?
Rachel
Easy to make but way too sweet even for me.
