Brandy Syrup Cream Recipes

BRANDY SIMPLE SYRUP

Steps:

• In a saucepan, combine water, sugar and lemon zest. Bring mixture to a boil and continue boiling for 5 minutes. Strain into a sealable container, removing the lemon zest. Allow to cool, then cover and store in refrigerator.
• When ready to use, mix in brandy. Brush onto cake layers before frosting.

BRANDY SNAPS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• In a small bowl, combine flour and ginger with a whisk. Melt butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add sugar and golden syrup; cook, stirring with a wooden spoon, until sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat; stir in flour mixture.
• Using a 2/3-ounce ice cream scoop, drop three level scoops of batter onto prepared baking sheets, about 2 inches apart. Bake until flat and golden brown, about 10 minutes, rotating halfway through.
• Remove from oven and let cookies cool just slightly until firm, about 2 minutes; place each cookie over an inverted drinking glass or wrap around the handle of a whisk, using your hands to press and gently shape. Let set 30 seconds. Transfer to a wire rack to cool. Repeat process with remaining batter.

BRANDY WHIPPED CREAM

Steps:

• Add the heavy cream and sugar to the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a whisk attachment and whip until it forms soft peaks. Add the brandy and mix in.

BRANDY SNAPS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
• Heat the butter, corn syrup and sugar in the top half of a double boiler over low heat. Stir constantly until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is smooth. Remove from heat and stir in the flour, brandy and ginger until smooth.
• Drop rounded teaspoons of the batter about four inches apart on a well-greased baking sheet. Bake, four or five at a time, until the snaps spread into circles and turn a golden brown (this takes about six to eight minutes).
• Allow the snaps to cool slightly and then loosen then from the baking sheet with a knife or spatula. Working quickly, put them one at a time in the palm of your hand and place a greased wooden handle over the center of the snap. Wrap the snap around the handle to form a cylinder. Hold in place until set, then slide the snap onto a rack. Repeat until all the snaps are finished. If the snaps become too stiff to roll, return the baking sheet briefly to the oven so that they can soften up.
• Whip the cream until stiff and fill each snap with cream at both ends.
