Introduction

Brandy snaps are a delicious and simple dessert that can be enjoyed by all ages. These delicate treats are perfect for any occasion and are easy to make, even if you are not an experienced baker. The crunchy, sweet flavor of brandy snaps is sure to be a crowd-pleaser, and you can customize them with your favorite fillings, such as whipped cream or chocolate mousse.

Ingredients

To make brandy snaps, you will need the following ingredients:
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 1/4 cup golden syrup
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 tablespoon brandy

Substitutions

If you do not have golden syrup, you can substitute corn syrup or honey. You can also use dark corn syrup or molasses for a richer flavor. If you do not have brandy, you can use rum or cognac.

Instructions

Follow these steps to make brandy snaps:
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F.
  2. In a medium saucepan, melt the butter, sugar, and golden syrup over low heat. Stir constantly until the sugar has dissolved.
  3. Add the flour, ginger, and brandy to the saucepan and stir until well combined.
  4. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  5. Drop teaspoonfuls of the batter onto the lined baking sheet, spacing them at least 2 inches apart.
  6. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the brandy snaps are golden brown and lacy.
  7. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the brandy snaps cool for 1-2 minutes.
  8. While the brandy snaps are still warm, use a spatula to carefully remove them from the baking sheet and shape them into rolls or bowls. You can use a rolling pin or the bottom of a glass to help shape them if needed.
  9. Let the brandy snaps cool completely before filling them with your desired filling.

Tips

Be sure to space the teaspoonfuls of batter at least 2 inches apart on the baking sheet, as the brandy snaps will spread while baking. You can also use a silicone baking mat instead of parchment paper to prevent sticking.
