    1. Put the "First Mix" ingredients into a food processor, and blend to a fairly fine crumb. Remove 40g of this, and put in a small bowl (to be used after the baking stage). Put the remainder into a large bowl.

    2. Add the "Second Mix" ingredients to the large bowl. Mix in.

    3. Set oven to Gas Mark 3. Grease a 7x11 inch baking tin.

    4. Put the "Toffee Mix" ingredients into a small pan. Slowly bring to boil while stirring. Using a thermometer, slowly heat until the boiling point reaches 119 deg C. This temperature is quite critical.

    5. Add this hot liquid mix to the large bowl, and mix in thoroughly.

    6. Put this mix into the baking tin, and smooth down firmly. Bake near the middle of the oven at Gas Mark 3 for 15 mins.

    7. Spread the 40g of reserved mix from step 1 evenly onto the hot ginger slice, and firm down gently. Leave to cool, then cut into slices. Enjoy!
