i just made this with my children aged 3 and 18 mths and we all had heaps of fun. the recipe is easy and i had everything required in the cupboard and it taste great. we will be making this again very soon. we also didn't bother about icing them we just had them plain. - 11 Dec 2010
They came out delicious. We used 2 teaspoons of ginger but only due to personal preference. Our 2 year old had lots of fun making them! - 10 Jul 2016 (Review from Allrecipes UK & Ireland)
Really scrummy! Definitely lighter but the taste still has a little of the ginger heat - perfect! - 25 May 2016 (Review from Allrecipes UK & Ireland)
