HOMEMADE BRANDY
I clipped this from the local newspaper and posted it for safekeeping. Looks easy and good for those cold winter nights or maybe a nice addition to a cake(?) There are no exact measurements so I guessed. The instructions listed are exactly as it was printed. You will need a one gallon jar with a lid. Servings and cook time are only listed because they have to.

Steps:
- Enough fruit to somewhat fill a gallon jar, (cherries, apricots, crabapples, etc.).
- Place fruit, any kind, into glass jar -- pits and all, just cut off the yucky parts.
- Add sugar and vodka.
- Set on your kitchen counter and flip it every day for three months. (If you put it away you'll forget about it!)
- The first few days I place the jar into a bucket in case my lid leaks, that way I can pour it back in and go hunt for a new lid. I put a sticker on it indicating the date it will be ready and "Up on even" if I happen to start it on an even day, you wouldn't believe how many times I've thought to myself "did I turn the brandy today?")
- In three months strain it through cheesecloth or a clean dishcloth or what have you, if you want it even clearer then strain it again through a paper coffee filter.
- Bottle it and wowee it's delicious! I do up a nice label on my computer and bottle it into smaller than micky bottles to tuck into my Christmas baskets.

Steps:
- Make sure the plum halves are clean and dry, then put them in a large sterilised glass jar. Add the sugar, brandy, cinnamon stick and star anise. Seal and gently rotate the jar to help dissolve the sugar.
- Continue to gently shake or rotate the jar (trying not to bash the fruit too much) every day for a week.
- Once the sugar has dissolved, leave it in a cool dark cupboard for another 2 weeks to infuse.
- Strain the mixture through a sieve lined with muslin, kitchen paper or coffee filter paper. Discard the plums, any fruit pulp and the spices, and pour the strained brandy into a bottle. Will keep for two months.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 180C/ 160 fan/ gas mark 4 and two baking trays with baking parchment.
- Put the butter, sugar and golden syrup in a saucepan and heat gently until the butter and sugar have melted. Put the flour and ginger in a bowl and make a well in the centre. Add the lemon zest and juice and the brandy. Pour in the butter mixture and gradually beat it into the flour until the mixture is thoroughly combined.
- Use a teaspoon to dollop 3 - 4 heaps of mixture onto the prepared baking tray. A heaped tsp is enough for a cigar and two heaped teaspoons is enough for a basket. Space them well apart as they will spread. Cook in batches for 8 - 10 mins until set, golden brown and lacy in appearance. Do not allow to go too dark as they will taste bitter. Leave for a minute before shaping - the snaps should still be pliable but set enough to move without tearing.
- You can shape the brandy snaps into cigars or baskets. To make cigars, oil the handle of a wooden spoon and wrap the brandy snap around. If you have a long handle or more than one spoon, you can do a few at a time. The base of the biscuits should be the bit that touches the spoon so that the top 'presentation' side of the biscuit is seen. Transfer to a cooling rack. To make baskets, oil the base of small ramekins or narrow tumblers and drape the biscuits over them. The top of the biscuit should touch the base this time as this is the bit you'll see.
- Pipe whipped cream into the cigars or use the baskets or cones for ice cream and berries. If not using straightway, store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
