Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Combine the butter, parsley, shallots, garlic, and brandy in a bowl and blend well.
- Place a snail in each shell and fill the cavity with the seasoned butter. (If you do not have shells, you can use escargot baking dishes - this is actually how I prefer to make them. Most of such dishes hold 6 escargot apiece.).
- Place on a baking pan and bake for twelve minutes.
- Serve hot, as an appetizer, on individual snail dishes - or on small folded napkins on plates, to keep the shells from sliding about. Also, small silver forks to easily eat them with are a good idea.
- Make sure to have plenty of good bread alongside, to mop up the delicious butter sauce! :).
- Also good with a bit of Parmesan sprinkled on top of each.

SNAILS BOURGUGNONNE/ESCARGOTS A LA BOURGUIGNONNE
I reviewed this Recipe #319778 wanting it lower in cholesterol adding more veggies for better health.Olive oil is high in monounsaturated fats and antioxidants. Don't get me wrong these are still fattening but delish and healthier then all butter. I bought the Canned French escargots with empty shells for serving, in a speciality store. If using mushroom caps you can pre-cook a couple minutes for softer mushrooms or if you like them raw to firm stuff then cook.

Tips:
- Buy high-quality escargots: Look for plump, uniformly sized snails with intact shells.
- Purge the escargots: Place them in a container filled with cold water and a handful of cornmeal. Let them soak for 24 hours, changing the water and cornmeal every 8 hours.
- Cook the escargots properly: Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and add the escargots. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 8-10 minutes, or until the escargots are tender. Remove them from the heat and let them cool slightly.
- Use fresh herbs: Herbs like parsley, thyme, and chives add a delicious flavor to the escargots.
- Don't overcook the escargots: Overcooked escargots will become tough and rubbery.
- Serve the escargots immediately: Escargots are best enjoyed hot and fresh out of the oven.
