Brandy Snaps

Brandy Snaps are a popular dessert in the UK. It doesn’t require a lot of ingredients and it is not very technical but they are so good.

Having fresh ginger instead of powdered ginger makes a big difference.

I would also recommend dark chocolate compare to white chocolate because the snaps are very sweets and a darker chocolate balance well.

Adding brandy in this recipe is not a must. Brandy was supposed to come from branded that mean burned and not from the famous alcohol.
