This is my #1 favorite recipe in my whole collection. It is the first meal I made for my husband. Be sure to use green peppercorns (available packed in brine in a can or bottle). Adapted from a recipe in Jr. League of San Francisco's "San Francisco a la Carte".

Steps:
- In a heavy saucepan over medium-heat cook cream, stirring fairly frequently until reduced to approximately 1 cup.
- (Be sure to use a large enough pan as this bubbles up and will overflow pan if you are not careful).
- The cream should be thick.
- When it is, set in refrigerator.
- In skillet large enough to hold the filets in a single layer, heat oil until it is hot.
- Cook steaks for 3 to 4 minutes per side and then set aside and keep warm (I put them in oven at low temperature).
- Pour off excess fat from the skillet and deglaze with brandy; set aside.
- To the cream, add bouillon cubes, lemon juice, salt and sherry.
- Stirring constantly, bring to a boil.
- Remove from heat and add deglazing liquid along with the peppercorns.
- Reheat and pour a small amount over each steak.
- Serve remaining sauce in a gravy boat.
