I made my twinks using half measures of all the ingredients, and I replaced about a third of the sugar with finely chopped crystallised ginger - they were delicious! I find them very satisfying and filling too.

Thanks twink

#Had luck to find Whitworth's crystallised ginger in Nmkt Thing-me-Bobs(wonderful Aladdin's cave)a while back, 5 for £1, so bought 20 tubs.
Ginger is a wonderful replacement/addition in such recipes - AND in honey rice bubble square - SEE OTHER THREAD.
Off to make choc crackles now.
