Preparing Chocolate Cream Pots
Making Chocolate Cream Pots is an enjoyable process that results in a sophisticated dessert. You’ll start by heating the cream, which becomes the base of the silky filling. Then, the dark chocolate melds into the mixture, offering a luscious texture. Finally, the egg yolks and sugar are whisked together to create a rich custard that combines beautifully with the chocolate cream. The whole process takes just a short amount of time, making this dish the perfect option whether you’re an experienced cook or just starting out.

To create these indulgent Chocolate Cream Pots, gather the following ingredients:
- 500 ml Heavy cream
- 150 g Dark chocolate (70%)
- 4 Egg yolks
- 60 g Sugar
