1) Pre-heat the oven to 190/375 gas mark 5, line a baking tray with parchment/grease proof paper
2) Sift the flour, spice and bicarbonate in a bowl and rub in the butter with you fingers until you have fine bread crumbs.
3) Stir in the sugar, and then add the syrup and egg with a spoon to bring together, and then using your hands gently kneed the dough to form a ball.
4) Roll the dough on a floured surface and using a cookie cutter make 12-14 rounds (depending on the thickness and size of cutter) and bake on the tray, in the centre of the oven for 9-10 minutes.
5) The cookies will be slightly soft, this is right, they harden up slightly when cooling. Leave to cool on the tray for 5 minutes or so then transfer to a wire wrack.
You can always make the dough ready for later or the next day, roll in cling film and place in the fridge until needed. This will last for a few days here and bakes for the same time more or less depending on the oven.
