It has been forever since I last made Golden Syrup Dumplings. They were a popular dessert when we were kids, I love the simplicity of ingredients and preparation.
Golden Syrup Dumplings
3 cups water
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup golden syrup
75g butter
1 1/2 cups SR flour
50g butter, extra
3/4 cup milk
Combine water, brown sugar, golden syrup and 50g butter in large saucepan. Stir over low heat until melted.
Meanwhile, use your fingertips to rub in 50g butter into flour. Stir milk into flour mixture until well combined.
Bring the sauce to the boil then drop heaped dessert spoonfuls of the mixture into the sauce. Reduce heat to low and simmer, covered for 15-20 minutes or until a skewer comes out clean. Serve with ice cream.
