Servings: 4 servings
Cost: $10
Ingredients
- 8 ounces high-quality semisweet chocolate chopped
- 1 1/2 cups whole milk
- 1 1/2 cups heavy cream
- 5 large egg yolks
- 5 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- Whipped cream optional
Instructions
- Place the chocolate in the bottom of the blender pitcher.
- In a small saucepan, whisk together the whole milk, cream, egg yolks, sugar and salt. Bring the mixture to a simmer over low heat and continue whisking until the mixture is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, approximately 5 minutes.
- Pour the cream over the chocolate in the blender. Place the lid on the blender and blend (on the soup setting if using the KitchenAid Pro Line® Blender) until smooth.
- Divide the mixture evenly among four 4 ounce ramekins and transfer to the refrigerator
- Chill for 2 hours until set.
- Serve with whipped cream and chocolate shavings, if desired
Notes
Be sure to whisk the cream mixture constantly to avoid the eggs from scrambling. If you start to see small lumps in your cream, strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve before transferring to the blender.
