These were amazing! I made with GF flour and the consistency was a bit different but so much more delicious than anything I could ever buy.

These were declared the best ever ginger kisses by all who ate them, and they looked nice and even.

Do I need to use Golden Syrup that is tinned? Can I just use the regular bottled stuff instead? Why?CHELSEA: Hi there, our golden syrup in the tin has a thicker consistency and richer caramel flavour than the easy pour version in the bottle.

Great ex-pat comfort food
Delicious. These are better than regular ginger kisses you buy in supermarkets. It took me a few goes to perfect these, but they are great. Fast and easy once you get the hang of it.I recommend 3 tsp of ginger, instead of 2. And 1 tsp scoops instead of 2.
Preheat oven to 170ºC/150ºC fan-forced. Line 3 large baking trays with baking paper.
Sift flours, ginger and Edmonds Baking Soda together. Using an electric mixer, beat Tararua Butter, Chelsea Caster Sugar and Chelsea Golden Syrup until light and fluffy. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating until combined after each addition. Beat on medium speed for 2 minutes or until creamy (mixture may appear curdled at this stage). Add half the flour mixture. Beat on low speed until combined. Repeat with remaining flour mixture. Stand for 5 minutes.
Spoon 2 level teaspoons of mixture, on top of each other, onto prepared tray. Repeat with remaining mixture, leaving 5cm between each for spreading. Bake, 1 tray at a time, for 13 to 15 minutes or until golden and just firm to touch. Cool on trays.
Make Filling : Using electric mixer, beat Tararua Butter until light and fluffy. Gradually beat in Chelsea Icing Sugar until well combined. Beat in Chelsea Golden Syrup. Spread 2 to 3 teaspoons of filling onto flat side of half of the biscuits. Sandwich with remaining biscuits. Serve.
Notes : Spooning teaspoons of mixture on top of each other will result in even-sized rounds.
Ginger kisses are best eaten on the day they're made.
Make these dinner-party worthy by using mascarpone and grated orange rind for the filling.
These were amazing! I made with GF flour and the consistency was a bit different but so much more delicious than anything I could ever buy.
