GINGER AND PECAN SLICE
Ingredients
250g butter (or margarine)
210g sugar
1 teaspoon ginger powder
1 packet of pecans (approximately 110g)
1 packet of glazed ginger (approximately 200g)
290g self-raising flour
Method
Pulse glazed ginger and pecans 4-5 times on turbo. Remove from bowl and place aside.
Melt butter on 100c for 2½ minutes speed 1.
Add all other ingredients and mix on reverse, speed 2 for 1 minute.
Press into greased or lined tray and bake in moderate oven for 20-25 minutes (until golden in colour).
General Tips
This slice is easier to cut once cooled (or even the next day) with a very sharp knife.

JD - I used glace ginger from Charlesworth nuts. It is delicious, almost fudge like (is this how is should be TC?) I cooked it for 25 minutes
thermoconvert - It is definitely a soft slice, I am not sure how I would describe it but it can be crumbly if cut too early.
JD - Soft slice, yes that describes it well. Mine was cold before I cut it and it didn't crumble at all. Perfect.
