BRANDY SNAPS


Once they are cooled and crispy it's time for the brandy cream. The snaps are really good on their own to eat, but I prefer them with the cream. Heavy whipping cream is whipped (use cold cream, it will whip faster) with a touch of brandy (optional, but they are brandy snaps after all). Cream is  cold, pipes better and keeps it's shape, also whips faster.

Ingredients
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter
  • 1/4 cup light brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup golden syrup * see note
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
  3. To a small saucepan over medium-low heat add the butter, sugar and golden syrup.
  4. Heat until the sugar has dissolved, stirring occasionally. Do not allow to boil.
  5. The sugar has dissolved when you can longer see or feel sugar crystals.
  6. Turn off the heat and allow to cool slightly.
  7. Stir in the flour and ginger.
  8. Drop about 1 teaspoon of the mixture onto the parchment paper in circles, about 3 1/2 inches in diameter, 4 inches apart, 6 per baking sheet.
  9. Bake in the oven for about 5 minutes until they are golden and lacy looking. Watch them because they turn dark very quickly.
  10. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 1 minute until you can handle them. Any sooner and they will fall apart, any longer and they will be too hard.
  11. To lift them from the sheet I use a fish spatula.
  12. Roll around a the handle of a wooden spoon with seam side down and allow to cool for a few seconds.
  13. Remove from the spoon and repeat with all of the snaps.
