Florentine biscuit recipe

I have googled but there are a lot of different recipes, anyone know which would be and authentic one?

This is the recipe I use

30g butter
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon golden syrup
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1 tablespoon plain flour
2 teaspoons mixed peel
1 tablespoon finely chopped red glacé cherries
1/4 cup (20g) flaked almonds, chopped coarsely
75g dark chocolate

Preheat the oven to moderate (180°C). Combine butter, sugar and golden syrup in a small saucepan; stir over heat, without boiling, until sugar is dissolved. Remove from the heat.

Stir in the ginger and flour then the peel, cherries and nuts. Drop level 1/2 teaspoons of mixture onto greased oven trays, leaving about 6cm between each to allow mixture to spread. Cook only 6 at a time.

Bake in a moderate oven for about 5 minutes or until golden brown; gently push the Florentines into shape with a small cutter or palette knife while still hot. Stand Florentines for 1 minute before transferring to a wire rack to cool.

Melt the chocolate then spread the chocolate over the flat side of the florentines; run a fork through the chocolate before it sets to make a wavy pattern. Stand Florentines, chocolate-side up, on a wire rack until set.
Makes about 36 small ones.
