DescriptionDescription  A childhood favourite.
InstructionsInstructions  Preheat the oven to 160o/Gas Mark 3 Grease 3 baking sheets. Sift the dry ingredients together. Melt the butter, syrup and sugar over a low heat in a pan. Mix it all together and then add the egg to form a dough. It will be sticky to start with but it becomes firmer as it cools. Roll it out on a lightly floured surface 3mm/ 1/8" thick and cut out 20 people using a biscuit cutter. Decorate them with currants/cherries etc. Bake the biscuits for 15-20 minutes or until firm and golden. Leave them to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes then transfer them to a wire wrack to cool completely.
NotesNotes  This makes a nice pliable dough that is easy to use with children.
