Description

Ingredients
Scale
4 egg yolks
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 tsp vanilla paste or extract
1 2/3 cups heavy whipping cream
2.5 oz dark chocolate
2 to 3 tbsp granulated sugar (for caramelizing)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C).
- In a saucepan, heat the heavy whipping cream and dark chocolate over medium heat until the chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth. Remove from heat.
- In a bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, granulated sugar, and vanilla until the mixture is pale and thick.
- Slowly pour the warm chocolate mixture into the egg yolk mixture, whisking continuously to prevent curdling.
- Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a large measuring cup or bowl to ensure a silky texture.
- Divide the mixture evenly among ramekins and place them in a baking dish. Fill the dish with hot water until it reaches halfway up the sides of the ramekins.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers are still slightly wobbly.
- Remove from the oven and let them cool at room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
- Before serving, sprinkle a thin layer of granulated sugar on top of each custard. Use a kitchen torch or broiler to caramelize the sugar until it’s golden and crispy.
- Let the caramelized sugar set for a minute before serving. Enjoy your Chocolate Chocolate Creme Brulee!
Notes
Ensure that the egg yolks are whisked thoroughly to achieve the light texture. Use high-quality dark chocolate for the best results.
