Golden Syrup Dumplings
This old fashioned dessert is the ideal end to a winter dinner. Serve them with custard or ice- cream and watch them disappear. They'll soon be a family favourite.

Ingredients:
2 cups hot water
2 tbsp golden syrup
1 tbsp butter
1/2 cup white sugar
2 cups self raising flour
2 tbsp butter, extra
milk 

Method:
Rub extra two tablespoons butter into flour to resemble breadcrumbs. Add just enough milk to make a soft dough. Roll into dessertspoon sized balls. Combine hot water, golden syrup, one tablespoon butter and white sugar in a saucepan. Slowly bring to the boil, stirring constantly to dissolve sugar.  Once boiling, carefully drop dumplings into syrup, turn heat down and simmer for twenty minutes.
