Add 2 teaspoons of preserved ginger syrup or golden syrup to the butter.

Melt the butter, sugar, and syrup in the microwave, stirring occasionally to prevent burning.

Once melted, add 3 tablespoons of chopped ginger and mix well.

Add 1.5 cups of rolled oats and mix until well combined.

Add 1.5 teaspoons of baking powder and 3/4 cup of plain flour, mixing well with a spatula.

Prepare a slice tray by spraying it with oil and lining it with baking paper.

Press the mixture tightly into the prepared tray using a spatula.

Bake in the oven for 20 to 25 minutes until golden brown.

While the slice is baking, prepare the topping by adding 100 grams of butter and 2 tablespoons of golden syrup to a pot.

Add 2 cups of icing sugar and 2 tablespoons of chopped ginger to the pot and melt together.

Dissolve the icing sugar in the mixture on the stove.

Once the slice is baked, pour the syrup mixture over the hot slice and spread it evenly.

Allow the slice to cool completely to set properly.

Once cooled, remove the slice from the tray and cut into pieces.
