Ooh I haven’t seen this thread before!
Cornish Fairings (a recipe from and 80s cooking book I use to make biscuits or cookies if you’re American)
-100g plain flour
-1 Tsp of baking powder
-1 Tsp of bicarbonate of soda
-50g sugar
-100g unsalted butter
-100g sugar
-1 Tbsp of golden syrup
-1 Tsp of ginger
-1 Tsp of mixed spice or cinnamon or nutmeg (whatever you have to hand)
-Pinch of salt
Mix the flour, butter together till smooth then add the sugar and salt and mix. Add the ginger (or flavouring of your choice) salt, baking powder, bicarb of soda and mix. Then add the syrup (for best results warm it before hand) and mix it in till tough. This makes around 10ish? Depending on size. Make sure to space them out as they grow a lot as they bake! I’ve experimented and used black treacle instead of syrup to make a distinct but intriguing flavour
