Preparation

Step 1

1. Preheat the oven setting the temperature at 300 degrees F (150 C).

2. In a large mixing bowl, using a wooden spoon mix the butter and sugar until completely blended together.

3. Add one egg, mix in thoroughly then repeat the same with each additional egg.

4. Add in the baking soda and the milk, stir and combine well.

5. Gradually add the flour, better if done using a flour sieve or a fine mesh colander. Just put the flour in it and shake it to sift it. It can also be done simply adding one tablespoon of flour at a time but it must be mixed in completely before each addition.

6. Melt the chocolate chips in a double boiler or bain-marie, and then add it to the mixture together with the espresso coffee, the brandy or imitation brandy flavor.
