Ingredients
Method
1. Preheat the oven to 190˚C. Lightly grease a 20cm x 30cm shallow tin and line the base and two sides with baking paper.
2. Cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Sift flour, baking powder and ginger together. Mix into creamed mixture. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured board. Knead well.
3. Press dough into prepared tin.
4. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until light brown.
5. While the base is cooking make the icing. In a small saucepan combine butter, icing sugar, golden syrup and ginger. Heat until butter is melted, stirring constantly.
6. Pour hot Ginger Icing over the hot base. Cut into fingers immediately and leave to cool in the tin on a wire rack, then break apart along the cuts.

I have made this three times, including once as a Christmas gift. It always flies off the plate and never lasts more than a day in the slice container. I did however lessen the sugar in both the base and icing (by 1/4 of a cup). I made the base so it wasn't a firm type, more soft, but cooked. It's very moreish.
It tastes NOTHING like ginger crunch. Sorry I left out the ginger. My bad Folks. I'm so sad because we timesed the recipe by 4 for my sons birthday party and now it all has to go to waste
Turned out horrible
We love it
IT TURNED OUT PERFECT SO YUMMY AND WE MADE A DOUBLE BATCH TOO!!!
The best recipe for ginger crunch I have ever tried. My mother used to make this in the 70's and it is just as good as I remember.No need to change a good recipe to try to make it healthy. It is an occasional treat not a healthy slice. So good.
