Ingredients
2 tbsps Golden syrup
2 oz butter
2 oz brown sugar
1 tsp ground ginger
½ pint double cream
Method
- Put the syrup, butter and sugar into a saucepan. Heat until the butter has melted. Sift the flour and the ginger together, then stir in the syrup mixture.
- Drop tablespoons of the batter on to well greased baking sheets, well spaced apart (don’t put more than 2 on each sheet).
- Put into a pre-heated oven 180 ºC or mark 4 and bake for 7 minutes until golden brown
- Cool for 1 min, then remove the brandy snaps from the sheets, one at a time, and immediately roll them around the handle of a wooden spoon. Allow to firm and cool on the handle.
- Whip cream until stiff and pipe rosette in each end of the brandy snap.
Tip, if the snaps firm before you have a chance to mould them into shape return them to the oven for a few minutes to soften. |
