Just made pots de creme…

  • 2 1/2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 1/2 cups milk
  • 6 ounces bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped
  • 6 large egg yolks
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • Dash of cinnamon
  • Dash of ginger
  • Pinch of salt

…and oh, oh my goodness is it marvelous.

I took the proportions from the Bitten recipe, but since I didn’t feel like baking anything tonight, I made it the lazy way…

Combine ingredients in a heavy saucepan. Cook on low heat, whisking constantly, until mixture thoroughly coats the back of a spoon, about 15-20 minutes.
Pour into little cups and refrigerate.

If you take the same recipe and double the dairy, it makes a lovely ice cream.
