This week the Alpha Bakers are baking
Brandy Snaps Cannoli..
I made the Brandy Snaps Cannoli, I found that you have to be fast of cutting and rolling them because I had to heat the other tray of brandy snaps mixture, but that's me.

I wanted to make a
couple of changes so I made white chocolate Mousse , Dark Chocolate melted and
piped on round the edges and some different types of fruits and dusted with
sugar pearl on top. Was it worth the effort, Yes!!
Absolutely Delicious!
Look at these pretty deserts
and they look delicious too.....Absolutely Delicious!
Added some
fresh strawberries, raspberries, blackberries, wild blueberries and some
sugar pearl dust on top. I couldn't find any red currents...
The white
chocolate mousse is ready to pipe the brandy snaps....
I melted some
dark chocolate and piped it on around the top edges...
Now I placed the white chocolate mousse into
the fridge for 1 hour..
added in 2 parts the whipped cream to the white chocolate mixture.
whipped up the rest of heavy cream to fold in the chocolate mixture..
After the chocolate has melted I added the heavy cream and mix it until it was all together..
In a double boiler, melt the chocolate and 150ml of heavy cream.
have the gelatin , white chocolate and heavy cream ready.
Here they are and they are not
that prefect but they could have been a bit thiner....Allowed to rest for about 30 seconds, and after I cut it into strips 2 3/4 inches and rolled around toilet paper rolls with foil wrap around them...P. S. They were a bit had to chew.
Preheated the oven to 3:50F and poured the brandy snaps mixture on to the prepared baking sheets and baked for 7 minutes.
I started off with the Brandy Snaps..
In a medium sauce pan I combine the corn syrup, butter, and the brandy over medium heat and stirred until the butter has melted , then added the brown sugar, ground ginger and flour, stirred until combine.
Absolutely Yummy!
