Mocha Petit Pots De Creme Recipes

MOCHA POT DE CREME

Steps:

• Pour the heavy cream, vanilla and coffee beans into a saucepan and place over medium-low heat. Bring the cream to a brief simmer; do not boil or it will overflow within seconds. Remove from heat and strain to remove the beans.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and the sugar until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is lemon-colored, about 3 minutes. Temper the yolks by gradually whisking the hot cream into the yolk and sugar mixture (do not add the hot cream too quickly or the eggs will cook.) Stir in the brewed coffee and melted chocolate.
• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Pour the egg-cream mixture into 6 (8-ounce) ramekins or cappuccino cups, filling 3/4 of the way full with mixture. Fill a large, shallow baking pan with 1/2-inch of warm water. Carefully place the ramekins in the water bath and bake for about 35 minutes, the center should jiggle slightly. Remove the pan from the oven and let the ramekins cool in the water for 10 minutes. Then pop them in the refrigerator to chill for at least 2 hours.

Steps:

• Put the chocolate in a blender. Whisk the milk, heavy cream, egg yolks, sugar, espresso powder and salt in a 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 down with a thick kitchen towel; blend until combined and smooth, stopping to scrape down the blender as needed. Divide the chocolate mixture among eight 4-ounce ramekins. Refrigerate until set, at least 2 hours. Top with chopped chocolate-covered espresso beans.
