Ingredients
-
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, cubed
-
1/3 cup sugar
-
3 tablespoons light corn syrup
-
2/3 cup all-purpose flour

2 teaspoons brandy
-
1 teaspoon ground ginger

FILLING:

4 cups heavy whipping cream
-
1-3/4 cups confectioners' sugar
-
1/2 cup brandy
-
Grated chocolate, optional
Directions

1.
Preheat oven to 350°. In a small saucepan, combine the butter, sugar and corn syrup. Cook and stir over medium heat until butter is melted. Remove from the heat. Stir in the flour, 2 tsp. brandy and ginger.

Drop by teaspoonfuls, 3 at a time, 3 in. apart onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake until golden brown, 7-8 minutes.

Cool for 30-45 seconds. Working quickly, loosen each cookie and curl around a thick wooden spoon handle. (If cookies become too cool to shape, return to oven for 1 minute to soften.) Remove to wire rack to cool completely.

For filling, in a large bowl, beat cream until it begins to thicken. Add confectioners' sugar and brandy; beat until stiff peaks form. Just before serving, pipe cream mixture into cookies. Sprinkle ends with chocolate if desired.
