Pots de Crème

Description

This is chocolate pudding for adults: dark, rich and thick, with a restrained sweetness. A little goes a long way. If you don’t have Cognac, try Grand Marnier, Frangelico, framboise, you name it. Serve this in the prettiest or most sophisticated little ramekins you can find.

Ingredients

  • 1 1⁄2 c heavy cream
  • 7 oz ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped
  • 2 large egg yolks, lightly beaten
  • 1 T cognac or a flavored liqueur
  • 2 T unsalted butter, slightly softened

Instructions

In a saucepan over medium-high heat, bring the cream to a boil. Remove from the heat and stir in the chocolate and egg yolks. Stir until chocolate is melted. Stir in the Cognac or liqueur. Set aside until cool to the touch.

Stir in the butter until melted. The mixture will be thick. Cover with plastic wrap or foil and refrigerate until mixture is firm, 2-4 hours or overnight.
