Steps:
- Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 300°F.
- Put chocolate in a heatproof bowl. Bring cream, milk, espresso powder (to taste), and a pinch of salt just to a boil in a small heavy saucepan, stirring until espresso powder is dissolved, then pour over chocolate, whisking until chocolate is melted and mixture is smooth.
- Whisk together yolks, sugar, and a pinch of salt in another bowl, then add warm chocolate mixture in a slow stream, whisking constantly. Pour custard through a fine-mesh sieve into a 1-quart glass measure and cool completely, stirring occasionally, about 15 minutes.
- Line bottom of a baking pan (large enough to hold ramekins) with a folded kitchen towel and arrange ramekins on towel. Poke several holes in a large sheet of foil with a skewer. Divide custard among ramekins, then bake custards in a hot water bath , pan covered tightly with foil, until custards are set around edges but still slightly wobbly in centers, 30 to 35 minutes.
- Transfer ramekins to a rack to cool completely, uncovered, about 1 hour. (Custards will set as they cool.) Chill, covered, until cold, at least 3 hours.

CHOCOLATE ESPRESSO CUPS
I have not tried this recipe. I'm posting this recipe for safe keeping. I found this recipe in Shape magazine. A serving size is 1/4 cup. To cut even more calories use nonfat evaporated milk and skip the whipped topping. I plan to use Splenda for the sugar, decaff instant espresso powder, and sugar free chocolate chip and cool whip.

Steps:
- Line 2 espresso cups or 2 small ramekins with softened butter followed by cocoa powder. Ensure all sides are coated with the cocoa as this will stabilise the sides of the soufflé when it rises.
- In a large bowl, stir together the melted butter and melted chocolate until fully combined and smooth.
- Stir in the espresso powder, followed by the water.
- Stir in the egg yolk.
- Add in icing sugar. Stir until combined and smooth.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the egg white until soft peaks form.
- Gradually add the caster sugar and whisk until stiff peaks form and they become glossy.
- Fold 2 tablespoons of the whipped egg whites into the chocolate mixture and fold until fully incorporated. Gradually fold in the remaining whipped egg whites. Be careful not to over stir, as this will knock the air out, which will stop the soufflé from rising to its full potential!
- Quickly pour the mixture into the prepared espresso cups or ramekins.
- Using a knife, carefully pull across the top of each soufflé so that the top is completely flat.
- Neaten the edges of the cups by running your thumb around the rim of the cup. This will help the soufflé to rise straight.
- Chill the soufflés in the fridge for 30 minutes (optional) and then preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F).
- Bake for 15 minutes.
- Dust with a little cocoa powder and serve immediately.
- Enjoy!

CHEWY CHOCOLATE ESPRESSO COOKIES
This intense chocolate cookie has a crackly exterior with a deeply fudgey and chewy interior.. Recipe is from pastry chef Kate Jansen, who serves them at her restaurant, Willow, in Arlington, VA and was printed in the Washington Post. Dough needs 1 hour refrigeration. To toast the nuts, spread them on a baking sheet and bake in a 325-degree oven for about 6 minutes. Watch carefully because nuts will burn quickly.

Steps:
- Combine the flour, baking soda and salt in a small bowl and set aside.
- Melt 2 cups of the chocolate chips, the unsweetened chocolate and butter in a heavy-bottomed saucepan over low heat, stirring until smooth. Set aside.
- In the large bowl of a stand mixer on high speed, beat the eggs, sugar, ground coffee and vanilla extract until thick ribbons form and the mixture has doubled in volume. By hand, stir in the melted chocolate mixture until thoroughly combined, then add the dry ingredients, chopped walnuts and the remaining chocolate chips. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour or until firm.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Have ready some large baking sheets lined with parchment paper. (If you have a convection oven, use that setting.).
- Make golf ball-size scoops of dough, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake, in batches, 10 to 12 minutes; the tops will crack, but the cookies should be gooey inside. Cool on the baking sheets at least 1 minute before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Tips:
- For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70%.
- To make the chocolate cups ahead of time, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
- When filling the chocolate cups, be careful not to overfill them, or the espresso will spill over.
- To decorate the chocolate cups, you can use a variety of toppings, such as whipped cream, chocolate shavings, or chopped nuts.
- If you don't have espresso powder, you can use instant coffee powder instead. Just dissolve the instant coffee powder in a little bit of hot water before adding it to the chocolate.

Chocolate Espresso Cups are a delicious and elegant dessert that is perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. So next time you are looking for a special treat, give these Chocolate Espresso Cups a try!
