1.Sift flour, sugar and cocoa powder into a bowl. Whisk milk, brandy and eggs in a jug. Slowly whisk milk mixture into flour mixture until combined and smooth.

2.Heat a 20cm (base diameter) non-stick frying pan over moderate heat. Brush with a little of the melted butter. Pour about 1/3 cup of batter into pan. Quickly swirl and tilt pan to coat base. Cook crepe for 1 minute or until light golden. Turn and cook for l minute more or until light golden and just cooked.

3.Transfer to a heatproof plate; cover to keep warm. Wipe pan clean. Repeat, using remaining melted butter and batter to make 8 crepes. Fold crepes into quarters (triangles), then divide among serving plates. Cover to keep warm.

4.Combine chocolate, cream and the extra butter in same frying pan over low heat. Cook and stir for 3 minutes or until melted and smooth. Pour hot fudge sauce over crepes.

5.Serve with vanilla ice-cream.

For a kid’s version, replace the brandy with orange juice or extra milk.
