Ingredients

 * 4 tenderloin steaks, cut 1/2 inch thick
 * 2 tablespoons of butter or margarine
 * 1 pint container of heavy cream
 * 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper

 * salt to taste

Directions

 * 1) Over medium heat, melt the butter in a 12 inch skillet.
 * 2) Fry the steaks turning them over after 2 minutes or so.
 * 3) You do not want to over cook them at this point. They will finish cooking later.
 * 4) Add the cream, mushrooms to the steaks and cook for 5 minutes.
 * 5) Add the brandy and pepper and simmer over low heat. Simmer steaks for 5 to 10 minutes.
 * 6) Served with mashed potatoes or fries. OK, to make it a little healthier a vegetable would be nice.
