Ingredients

  • 2 Cups flour
  • 1 1/2 Teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 Teaspoon Nutmeg
  • 1/4 Teaspoon cloves
  • 1/2 Teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 Teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 Tablespoons golden syrup *
  • 3/4 Cups butter
  • 1 1/4 Cups sugar
  • 1 Egg
  • 1 Teaspoon vanilla

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, sift together flour, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, salt and baking soda. Set aside.
  • In the bowl of your electric mixer, beat the butter on high speed for about a minute. Add all the sugar at once and mix until pale and fluffy. Beat in the egg, golden syrup and vanilla and mix until combined, about a minute.
  • Add the flour to the mixture and stir with a wooden spoon until combined. Cover the cookie dough and refrigerate until firm, about one hour.
  • Remove the dough from the fridge. Using a teaspoon, scoop out small amounts of the dough and form into balls. Place at least 2 inches apart on the baking sheet.
  • Bake for about 12-15 minutes. Cookies should be crisp at the edges and quite soft in the middle when removed from the oven. Cool on a wire rack. Will keep up to 3-4 days in an airtight container. Can be frozen.
