Caramel Snaps


Spoil your friends and family with these treats fresh from the oven.

Ingredients:

50g Butter (Cubed)
1/4 Cup each: Sugar, Golden Syrup
1/3 Cup Flour
1/2 Tsp Ground Ginger
Freshly Whipped Cream to serve

Method:

1. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees celsius. Line 2-3 baking trays with baking paper.

2. Place the butter, sugar, golden syrup into a small saucepan and stir over a low heat until all the ingredients are combined (do not boil). Remove from the heat and stir in the flour and ginger.

3. Place three heaped teaspoonfuls of the mixture onto one of the prepared baking trays, leaving plenty of room for spreading. Bake for 8-10 minutes, until they are bubbling and a dark golden colour.

4. Leave to cool for 2-3 minutes until they are firm enough to handle. Quickly roll each each brandy snap around the handle of a wooden spoon or similar. Leave them until they have completely hardened.

5. Repeat with the remaining mixture. Once cooled, fill the brandy snaps with freshly whipped cream and serve immediately.
