Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees farenheit. Lightly grease a 10 x 15-inch jelly-roll pan.
  2. To prepare crust, combine oats, flour, sugar, cinnamon, ginger and salt in a large bowl. Use a pastry blender or two knives to cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in eggs. Turn dough into prepared pan and use a rubber spatula to spread evenly over bottom.
  3. Bake crust for 15 minutes. Remove from the oven; cool on a rack for 10 minutes.
  4. To prepare filling, combine currants, cherries, coconut, nuts and ginger in a large bowl; set aside. In a medium bowl, stir together butter, golden syrup and eggs. Add to fruit-nut mixture and stir to combine. Spread evenly over baked crust.
  5. Bake 22 to 27 minutes, or until golden brown. Cook on rack.
  6. To prepare glaze, combine sugar and golden syrup in a medium bowl. Stir in enough orange juice or milk to make a smooth, creamy glaze of medium consistency. Drizzle glaze over cooled cookies. Let glaze set before cutting into 70 (about 1 1/2 ) squares, cutting 7 strips one way and 10 strips the other way. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week or freeze for longer storage.
