Time to Save Room for Dessert with chocolate

Today I'm sharing a chocolate cream recipe from my Joy of Desserts blog archives.

If you didn't already do so, be sure to enter the giveaway at Joy of Desserts for a chance to win Corked. It's a soon-to-be-released memoir about a father, a daughter and a wine trip to end all wine trips. There will be 5 winners.

Joy of Desserts
Creme Au Chocolat
8 oz semisweet chocolate, grated or chopped
41/2 cup milk
2/3 cup sugar
5 egg yolks
1 whole egg

In a double boiler, pour 1/4 cup of the milk and chocolate and stir until melted. Gradually add remaining milk, then sugar, stirring constantly. Let cool.

Preheat oven to 350F.

In a bowl, beat the whole egg and yolks. Beat eggs into the chocolate mixture.

Pour mixture into oven-proof custard cups or small molds and set them in a pan filled halfway with warm water. Bake until set or about 30 minutes.
