Bittersweet Chocolate Pots de Creme

By KeyIngredient

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup half and half
• 1/4 cup whole milk
• 2 large egg yolks
• 1/2 cup bittersweet chocolate chips
• 2 Tbsp sugar
• kosher salt

Preparation

Step 1

Heat the half and half and milk in a small saucepan over medium heat until scalding hot. Meanwhile, whisk the egg yolks in a small bowl. Slowly whisk the hot milk mixture into the eggs.

Return the milk mixture to the pan, reduce the heat to low, and whisk until it thickens, about 1 minute. Remove from the heat and add the chocolate chips, sugar and a pinch of salt; whisk until melted. Strain through a medium-mesh sieve into a medium bowl.

Divide the mixture between two 6 oz ramekins or serving glasses. Refrigerate until set, at least 1 hour.
