CHOCOLATE CHIP BRANDY CAKE
One of our family's favorite holiday recipes. It first was thought up when we accidentally found ourselves with about a half dozen bottles of brandy out of nowhere. After exhausting cocktails with it, we started testing bakedgoods with brandy. This recipe is one of the best we came up with at our house. It goes great warmed up with ice cream on the side.
