Method

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.
