Chocolate Pot de Creme
Heidi Munion
Saving this for the holiday seasons for my boys. So rich. Like eating fudge, but in a pie. Mmmmm.
2 cups cream
1 1/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1/3 cup sugar
4 beaten egg yolks
1 tsp vanilla
crust of your preference (Pillsbury premade or graham cracker or homemade. I recommend Kristi's pie crust recipe.)
1. Combine cream, chocolate, and sugar in medium saucepan. Stir over medium heat about 10 minutes or till mixture comes to a full boil and thickens. Remove from heat.
2. Temper the egg yolks by whisking in drizzles of about 1/3 cup of the hot chocolate mixture, then stir egg yolk mixture into the chocolate. Stir in vanilla.
3. Pour through a sieve into prepared pie crust to strain out lumps.
Chill 4-24 hours. May garnish with whipped cream, raspberries, or chocolate shavings.
