Number Of Ingredients 8

2 1/2 cups heavy cream
2 teaspoons instant espresso powder
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
6 ounces semisweet chocolate, finely chopped (1/2 cup)
4 large egg yolks
4 teaspoons sugar
Coarse salt
Whipped cream, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Bring the cream, espresso, vanilla, and chocolate to a simmer. Whisk until smooth.
  • In another medium bowl, whisk together egg yolks, sugar, and a pinch of coarse salt; add warm chocolate mixture in a slow stream, whisking constantly. Strain custard through a fine sieve into a 2-cup glass measuring cup.
  • Place six 4-ounce ramekins in the center of a baking dish lined with a towel. Divide custard among ramekins, and fill pan with enough boiling water to reach halfway up the sides of the ramekins. Cover with parchment paper. Bake until custard is set around edges but wobbly in center, 30 to 40 minutes.
  • Remove cups from water bath, and let custards cool on a wire rack for 1 hour. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours and up to 2 days. Serve with whipped cream, if desired.

These pots de creme were a bit too runny for my taste, but the flavor was good. I think next time I would cook them for a bit longer.

These were a bit too sweet for my taste, but otherwise they were good. I think next time I would use less sugar.

I've made this recipe several times and it always turns out perfectly. The pots de creme are so rich and decadent, and the coffee flavor is just right. I love serving them with a dollop of whipped cream and a sprinkle of cocoa powder.

These pots de creme were delicious! The coffee flavor was subtle but present, and the texture was smooth and creamy. I topped them with whipped cream and chocolate shavings, and they were perfect.

This mocha pots de creme recipe is a keeper! The pots de creme were rich, creamy, and had the perfect amount of coffee flavor. I loved the little bit of crunch from the chocolate chips on top. I will definitely be making this recipe again.
