Brandy Snaps

On Tuesday evening we had some friends round to play board games, so I thought it would be nice to have some refreshments!
I was a little concerned about making these after my tuiles were not very successful. However this time I was careful not to bake too many biscuits at one time.
Mary suggested four on one baking sheet, so I did as I was told. She also suggested using greased wooden spoon handles to wrap the biscuits around. As I only own one wooden spoon, I thought I would find an alternative. In the end I used four marker pens and rolled them in baking parchment. I then rolled each biscuit around them. They worked perfectly, in fact, it made me think that had I used a wooden spoon handle, the brandy snaps would have been very thin and not have much room for cream! They didn't take long to go hard, and I was able to use the pens for each batch that I made. I didn't need to replace the baking parchment each time. There was plenty of grease coming from the biscuits. Mary says that the recipe makes 24, but I only made 17. I think her ones would really be quite small. I don't wish to boast, but mine looked like shop bought ones, and they tasted delicious. We gave them 9.0! They went down well with our guests.
