Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Chocolate Cream Custard.
Step 1
In a medium saucepan, blend light cream, chopped sweet baking chocolate, and white sugar.
Step 2
Heat this delightful mixture over medium heat, stirring continuously until the chocolate melts completely and the texture becomes velvety smooth.
Step 3
To temper the egg yolks, take a small portion of the melted chocolate mixture and whisk it into the beaten egg yolks until fully combined.
Step 4
This step is crucial to prevent the yolks from cooking too rapidly.
Step 5
Next, pour the tempered egg yolk mixture back into the saucepan with the remaining chocolate blend.
Step 6
Gently heat while stirring constantly until the custard thickens just enough to coat the back of a spoon.
Step 7
Once you achieve that luscious consistency, remove the saucepan from the heat and ladle the custard into small dessert bowls.
Step 8
Let it cool slightly before indulging in this rich treat.
Step 9
For an extra touch of decadence, top with a dollop of whipped cream if you wish.
Step 10
Savor every spoonful of your exquisite Chocolate Cream Custard!.
