Ingredients
- 200 g Dark chocolate (70% cocoa or higher)
- 250 ml Heavy cream
- 50 ml Espresso (freshly brewed, cooled)
- 2 tbsp Granulated sugar
- 30 g Unsalted butter (room temperature)
- 3 Egg yolks
- 0 Whipped cream (for garnish, optional)
- 0 Cocoa powder (for dusting, optional)
Directions
Step 1
Chop the dark chocolate finely and place it in a heatproof bowl.
Step 2
In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat until it just begins to simmer. Do not let it boil.
Step 3
Pour the hot cream over the chopped chocolate. Let it sit for 1-2 minutes to allow the chocolate to melt, then whisk until smooth and glossy.
Step 4
Stir in the cooled espresso and granulated sugar until fully incorporated.
Step 5
Add the butter, one small piece at a time, whisking after each addition until smooth.
Step 6
In a separate bowl, lightly whisk the egg yolks. Gradually add the chocolate mixture to the egg yolks in small increments, whisking constantly to temper the eggs and avoid scrambling.
Step 7
Once mixed, divide the chocolate mocha mixture evenly between 4 small serving pots, ramekins, or glasses.
Step 8
Allow the pots to cool slightly at room temperature, then cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until set.
Step 9
Before serving, optionally garnish each pot with a dollop of whipped cream and a light dusting of cocoa powder for a polished finish.
