Too much flour for the amount of butter. The second time I used only one cup of flour instead of 1.5 cups. The topping was not quite enough, so I doubled it for the second time. Taste is perfect.

Base was too dry and crumbly - too much flour to butter ratio. Also the ginger icing needs to be double the amount to even cover it ...consider triple if you are wanting a thick icing base! Flavour is great but this recipe fails on ratios.

The flour to butter ratio is wrong for the base. You either need less flour or more butter. Icing was a bit skimpy as well.

This was super yummy, but had to double the ginger icing recipe because it wasn't enough to spread over the whole tin. I am 12 and I found it really easy to make!
Preheat oven to 190°C conventional. Grease an 18cm x 28cm slice tin and line with baking paper.
Cream Tararua Butter and Chelsea White Sugar until light and fluffy. Sift Edmonds Standard Grade Flour, Edmonds Baking Powder and ginger into creamed mixture and mix well (dough will be quite crumbly).
Press dough into prepared tin. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until light brown.
Pour ginger icing over base while hot. Allow to cool a little, then slice into squares while still warm.
Ginger Icing In a small saucepan on medium-low, combine Tararua Butter, Chelsea Icing Sugar, Chelsea Golden Syrup and ginger. Heat until butter is melted and mixture is smooth, stirring constantly.
Too much flour for the amount of butter. The second time I used only one cup of flour instead of 1.5 cups. The topping was not quite enough, so I doubled it for the second time. Taste is perfect.
