Put water, brandy, and butter on stove; when the water is boiling add the flour, stir for about two to three minutes, let stand until cold, add the eggs one by one — stirring five minutes after each. Put the fat on stove in a wide and deep fat kettle, take tablespoonfuls and put them in — very smooth — about six to seven at a time (be careful not to have the fat hot or the petits choux will not puff as they should — the fat must commence to get warm and then become hot during the time). When the petits choux are golden brown, put them on a broiler or paper to get cold, fill with heavily whipped cream flavored with brandy and sweetened to taste. Glaze with chocolate; decorate with circles of white frosting. Serve on a platter as a dessert with whipped cream in the centre for luncheon or dinner.
