Raw Chocolate Pots De Creme Recipes

Steps:

• Position a rack in the middle of the oven and heat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Put the chocolate into a medium bowl. Combine the cream and milk in a small saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat. Pour the hot cream over the chocolate. Let sit for 30 seconds or so to allow the chocolate to melt, then stir together until smooth.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, sugar, and vanilla paste. Slowly stream the egg mixture into the chocolate mixture, whisking constantly. Strain the custard through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl or pitcher, then pour into six 4-ounce ramekins or ceramic cups or bowls.
• Arrange the ramekins in a baking dish or pan and carefully add enough hot water to come about two-thirds of the way up the sides of the ramekins. Carefully place the baking dish in the oven and bake for 30 minutes. Remove the baking dish from the oven and let the pots de creme sit in the hot water for 5 minutes. If they still appear very jiggly in the middle, let them sit for another 5 minutes in the hot water. You want the custards to be very firm around the edges and to barely move toward the center when gently shaken.
• Remove the ramekins from the hot water and let cool in a cool area of the kitchen before serving, or chill to serve cold.

Steps:

• Combine egg yolks, sugar, and salt in a blender. Blend until smooth. Add heavy cream and half-and-half; blend again. Add chocolate and vanilla extract and blend until chocolate is very finely chopped. Carefully pour hot coffee through the opening while blender is running; blend until chocolate is melted and smooth.
• Pour mixture into small serving dishes. Let cool to room temperature. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 3 hours and up to 3 days.

Steps:

• Place the date paste, agave syrup and vanilla extract in a blender and process until smooth.
• Add avocado and process until blended.
• Add cocoa, cinnamon and coconut oil and process until fully incorporated (I had trouble getting it to mix in the blender so I mixed the cocoa and coconut oil in by hand).
• Pour the mixture evenly into 6 (6 oz) ramekins, spreading it with a small offset spatula. Chill in the fridge for about 2 hours before serving. Stored in the fridge, Chocolate Pots de Creme will keep for about five days.

Steps:

• Place the chocolate in a blender. Whisk the milk, 1 cup cream, egg yolks, granulated sugar and salt in a heavy-bottomed medium saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring constantly with a heatproof spatula, until the mixture is thick enough to coat the spatula and almost boiling, 5 to 6 minutes.
• Immediately pour the milk mixture over the chocolate in the blender. Cover and hold the lid with a thick kitchen towel; blend until combined and smooth, stopping to scrape down the sides of the blender as needed. Divide the chocolate mixture among ramekins or small cups and refrigerate until set, about 2 hours.
• Whip the remaining 1/2 cup cream and the confectioners' sugar with a mixer or in the blender until soft peaks form. Top the chilled pots de creme with whipped cream.

Steps:

• Put heavy cream in top of a double boiler.
• Add sugar.
• Place over boiling water and scald (i.e., heat almost to boiling).
• Remove from heat and add chocolate and stir until completely melted.
• Beat egg yolks and gradually beat them into the hot chocolate cream mixture.
• Place top of double boiler over boiling water again and cook, stirring constantly, until well thickened (about 3 minutes).
• Remove from heat, stir in vanilla, and then pour into 6-8 small custard cups (1/2 cup size).
• When cool, place in refrigerator to chill before serving.
