• Melt the butter, sugar, lemon rind and golden syrup over low heat.

• Drop teaspoonfuls of the mixture onto the tray. Do not put more than four at one time in order to allow them to spread.

• When the brandy snaps are golden brown in colour, Remove from oven and allow to stand for few seconds.
• Loosen it by using a sharp knife.
• Lift off the baking tray and place each brandy snap over an orange, mould it round the orange top to make a cup shape.
• If the snaps are too hard to take off the tray then put it back in the oven to soften.
