Method

  • step 1

    Line a 20 x 30cm tin with baking parchment. Mix the biscuits with most of the ginger, then set aside. Melt the chocolate, butter and golden syrup in a bowl set over a pan of simmering water, stirring occasionally, until smooth and glossy. Pour this over the biscuit and ginger mixture and mix together well.

  • step 2

    Tip the mixture into the prepared tin and sprinkle over the reserved ginger, then flatten the top lightly – it doesn’t need to be completely smooth. Chill for at least 2 hrs, or overnight, before cutting into small squares.

RECIPE TIPS
MAKE AHEAD

These squares will last in the fridge in an airtight container for a week, or freeze for up to a month. Keep them chilled until you pack them up to give away, so that they don’t melt while you’re transporting them.

Made these by cutting up stem (the ones in syrup) rather than crystallised ginger and they turned out incredibly tasty! Went down a storm with friends, well what was left after I got my hands on them! 😋

This is so easy to make but a bit messy when chopping the crystallised ginger. My singing group loved it so much I was asked for copies of the recipe.

Easy, quick to make, and super tasty! I made these for an evening event, and got a text the next morning from a professional caterer friend saying they were "amazing" and asking for the recipe. They're very rich so recommend cutting them small as per the recipe. I did accidentally use stem ginger…

Really easy recipe & they are delicious! I made these for an Office Charity Bake-off the other week & everyone loved them. I did cut mine in smaller squares though as they are lovely & rich. Will certainly make them again.

I ve made these a few times now. The darker the chocolate the better! I use high cocoa content chocolate and it makes all the difference. Otherwise they 're much too sweet. I suppose it depends on your taste.I don't like milk chocolate and make these as the ginger goes so well with dark chocolate…
