--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   4      oz            Golden syrup
   3 1/2  oz            Caster sugar
   4      oz            Butter
   3 1/2  oz            Flour -- sifted
   1      ts            Ground ginger
   1                    Lemon -- grated zest of
   1      ts            Lemon juice or brandy

Put the syrup, sugar and butter into a heavy saucepan and warm,
stirring, until the sugar has dissolved and the butter melted. Remove
from the heat and tip in the flour, ginger, and lemon zest. Add the
lemon juice or brandy and mix well. Drop teaspoonful of the mixture
3" apart, on greased baking sheets. Bake in a pre-heated moderate
oven (325°F) for 10 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from the
oven and roll around the greased handle of a wooden spoon whilst hot.
Do not allow them to cool as the snaps will become hard and
impossible to roll.
