Method:

1. Preheat the oven to 150°C/300°F/Gas mark 2. Lightly grease a baking tray.

2. Beat the sugar with the butter and golden syrup until light and thick. Sift in the flour and ginger and stir together.

3. Divide into 12 equal parts, then roll these into small balls. Place them on the baking tray and bake for 10 to 15 minutes, when the balls will have spread into dark brown biscuits.

4. Allow to cool briefly and then lift them off, one at a time. At this point they will be pliable.

5. Lay them one at a time around the handle of a wooden spoon to bend in half. They should set hard very quickly.
