Sticky Gingerbread
A dark, soft and intensely spiced British gingerbread loaf, better the day after baking. Wrapping and resting it overnight before cutting lets the syrup and treacle soften the crumb into its signature sticky texture.
Ingredients

Melt butter, golden syrup, treacle, sugar and milk together. Cool slightly.
Whisk in eggs.
Sift flour, spices and bicarb. Stir into liquid mixture.
Pour into a lined deep 20cm square tin.
