Sweet Sunday - Oaty Ginger Crunch


I have memories as a kid making ginger crunch with my dad. We would make it after I finished school, and the sweet ginger smell would fill the house.
I think we used to make it because it was always so quick and easy, and tasted great! 


This is the best recipe for ginger crunch that I have found.
This particular recipe has an oaty, chewy base, and a soft smooth icing

This recipe works perfectly if you are wanting to double the recipe too!

 once melted, sift in approx 3/4 of the icing.
