Directions
In a large bowl, whisk together egg yolks and sugar until thoroughly combined. Slowly add milk mixture to eggs whisking vigorously. Pour mixture back into saucepan. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly until mixture reaches at least 165 degrees and coats the back of the spoon, about 5 minutes.
Remove saucepan from heat; add milk chocolate chips. Stir until completely incorporated and smooth. Stir in half-and-half and brandy, if using. Strain mixture though a fine-mesh sieve into an extra-large bowl or pitcher. Cover and chill at least 4 hours or up to 24 hours.
Before serving, dip an 8-oz. glass mug in chocolate syrup and line the rim with chocolate covered espresso beans and chocolate sprinkles, if desired. Ladle 6-oz. of eggnog into each mug and garnish with a dollop of frozen whipped topping, if desired.
