Brandy Snap Baskets Recipe
Ingredients:
- 3 tablespoons golden syrup
- 90 grams butter
- 1/3 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup plain flour
Instructions:
-
Prepare the Brandy Snap Mixture:
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the golden syrup, butter, and brown sugar.
- Cook the mixture in the microwave on HIGH for 1 1/2 to 2 minutes or until melted, stirring occasionally to ensure everything is well combined.
-
Incorporate Flour:
- Once the mixture is melted and well combined, stir in the plain flour until you have a smooth batter.
-
Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) to ensure it’s ready when you’re done shaping the brandy snap baskets.
-
Shape the Baskets:
- Grease a 20 cm round cake tin to prevent sticking.
- Spoon a quarter of the brandy snap mixture into the greased cake tin, spreading it out evenly.
- Place the tin on the low rack in your oven and bake for 8 minutes using the convection setting at 180°C (350°F).
-
Cool and Shape:
- Once baked, allow the brandy snap to cool slightly in the tin.
- Carefully turn out the partially cooled brandy snap onto a small mould, such as an upside-down muffin tin or a small bowl, to shape it into a basket.
- Repeat this process with the remaining brandy snap mixture until you have made all the baskets you desire.
-
Fill the Baskets:
- Once the brandy snap baskets are shaped and cooled completely, it’s time to fill them with delicious toppings.
- Scoop your favorite ice cream into each basket, filling them to the top.
- Add fresh raspberries on top of the ice cream for a burst of fruity flavor and a pop of color.
