Clair Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 Easy peasy:800 ml milk200 ml liquid cream200 g bar of dark chocolate @ 70% 3 egg yolks50 g granulated sugar4 level tbsp cornflour (Maïzena)Heat the cream and milk in a large pan until they start bubbling gently.In the meantime, break the bar of chocolate in smallish pieces in a heat-proof jug or bowl.Mix the egg yolks, sugar and cornflour in another heat-proof jug or bowl and whisk until the mix becomes pale.Assoon as the milk and cream start bubbling, remove from the heat andpour half over the chocolate. Mix until melted and smooth.Pourthe chocolate mix over the left-over creamy milk, stir and pour gentlyover the egg, a little at a time, stirring all the time, until all ismixed.Pour back into the pan and reheat over a gentle flame, stirring all the time until it starts bubbling.Carryone stirring for another couple of minutes, then pour into smallramekins / cups and cool before putting in the fridge for a couple ofhours minimum.Edit: if you do not have 70% chocolate, add 1or 2 tbsp of cocoa powder (not drinking chocolate powder!) to the egg& sugar mix.

mint Posted March 21, 2009 Author Share Posted March 21, 2009 Clair, just so's you know your instructions to me have not been in vain............Made the pots today. Put them in coffee cups, piped a dollop of cream on top (to hide the "skin") and put a glacé cherry on some and a walnut half (from last year's crop) on others.Put the cups on matching saucers and served with 2 dainty almond biscuits on the side.Tasted divine! Thanks again......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
