Ginger Biscuits

It is always good to have a few quick and easy recipes available, and this recipe for ginger biscuits is certainly one that we’ve been using again and again.

These have a lovely strong gingery flavour with a darkness and hint of exoticness from the molasses and they really do go so well with a cup of tea in the winter time.

I’m obsessed with ginger and use it in so many of my recipes and if you read my post 3 Quickies with Ginger Plus 2 Recipes you’ll know why you should be obsessed with ginger too! Here’s my recipe for Ginger Snap Cookie Shapes if you’re after a fresher, lighter biscuit.
