I had this recipe for 20 years. It is an incredibly rich, smooth delight. I used to serve it at just about every dinner party I hosted--then I moved and lost the recipe! It recently surface. I hope you enjoy it.

I'm not a big fan of coffee, but I really enjoyed these pots de creme. The coffee flavor is subtle and not overpowering.
