White chocolate mousse and brandy snap baskets 10th September 2010By SusiePhotography by Adam White chocolate mousse has always been a firm favourite of mine – I generally make it at Christmas and serve it up with brandy snaps. Mousse and brandy snaps were not the first thing that came to mind when thinking of things to cook for this month’s theme, but I soon realised that a hot and cold version would make an interesting twist For a bit of fun I decided to make the brandy snaps into cylinders and dip them in dark chocolate so they could hold the mousse and be moved around. I also topped them in fresh raspberries which resulted in my own little sweet woodland of brandy snap trees.

I’ve spent hours wandering bookstores, mired in indecision, and the only thing that finally jolts me out of it is getting distracted by a pretty cover, and then just buying that one out of desperation.

More than anything, I adored the golden, buttery breadcrumbs and would heap them on to the zwetschgenknödel in alarming quantities.

Go With the Flo I had planned to make these rolls on Sunday (Mother's Day). No, I am not a mom...unless you count my two pups and a husband that often needs to be reminded to brush his teeth before bed...but, that doesn't mean that I couldn't enjoy a light brunch of Florentine Rolls, fruit salad, and fresh squeezed orange juice.
