Steps:

• Preheat oven to 180º Celsius (356º Fahrenheit).

• Add the egg and continue to beat well.
• Add the flour, crystallised ginger and half of the cornflakes (1 cup). Mix together with either a spoon or your hands.
• On a tray, crush the rest of the cornflakes with a rolling pin until the cornflakes are fine.
• Scoop a teaspoonfull of the mixture and use your hands to shape into balls which you then roll in the cornflakes you crushed earlier.
• Grease a baking tray with cooking spray/butter or cover with baking paper. Put the cornflake covered balls on the tray about 5cm apart from each other. Flatten the top of the ball with a fork gently.
• Bake for 10-20 minutes until the cookies are firm and have a light, golden color.
• Leave cookies on the baking tray for a couple of minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool. The cookies start to really crispen once cooled.
