Equipment

  • 1 small saucepan
  • 1 whisk
  • 1 small glasses, bowls or espresso cups

Instructions

  1. Pour cream into a small saucepan and heat until near boiling.
  2. Remove from heat and add chocolate (I buy a 200g block and bash it against the bench before opening, then just pour the pieces into pan).
  3. Stir well until chocolate has melted and mixture is smooth; it will still be a bit speckled at this point.
  4. Whisk in egg yolks and your liqueur of choice.
  5. Pour this chocolate heaven into small glasses, bowls or espresso cups. Refrigerate until cool or until needed.
