If you are a fan of ginger than you are going to love these ginger slices. Every bite is full of fiery ginger, the base is crumbly and the topping is smooth, sweet and spicy! I love ginger as a flavour and so does my fella, he is a massive fan and loves it in almost anything so I am always on the look out for new and interesting ways to use it. That’s when I spotted this recipe in ‘Love Baking’ magazine and knew I had to try it.















The base is basically a gingery shortbread, its so crumbly and light I could just eat it by itself, maybe one day I will make it just to eat it that way.















And the topping is amazing; it’s smooth and so sweet. You need to have a sweet tooth to really appreciate this and a deep love of ginger for it is a little on the fiery side. What makes it so sweet is the golden syrup (light corn syrup can be used instead) and the icing / confectioners sugar, that is melted in a pan with the butter and the very generous 2 tablespoons of ground ginger.















This is a great afternoon pick me up, or you could serve with ice cream for a dessert. Either way any fan of ginger is going to love this recipe.
