1 tbsp milk
1 tsp bicarbonate of soda
1⅓ cups plain flour

Using an electric mixer, beat butter and sugar until light and creamy. Place golden syrup and milk into a heatproof microwave-safe jug. Microwave for 20-30 seconds on high or until hot. Stir in bicarb – take care as mixture will bubble up.
Add warm milk mixture to butter mixture. Stir until well combined. Sift flour over batter. Mix well. Roll 2 teaspoonfuls of mixture into balls. Place onto prepared trays, allowing room for spreading. Gently press biscuits down with a floured fork.
Bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden and firm to the touch. Stand on trays for 3 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.
