Ingredients:

1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1/2 cup whole milk
4 ounces bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped
4 egg yolks
3 tablespoons sugar
1/8 teaspoon kosher salt

Topping

Whipped cream

Directions:

Preheat oven to 300 degrees.

In a heavy saucepan, bring cream and milk to a boil. Remove from heat; whisk in chopped chocolate until smooth.

In a large bowl, whisk together the yolks, sugar and salt. Whisking constantly, slowly pour hot chocolate into yolks. Strain through a very fine mesh sieve into a large measuring cup or bowl.

Divide mixture among 2- to 4-ounce espresso cups or small ramekins. Set filled cups in a large roasting pan that has been positioned on center rack of oven. Add hot tap water to pan, halfway up sides of cups. Cover pan with foil; use a fork to prick holes in foil.

Bake until edges are lightly set (lifting foil to check) but center is still jiggly (it will set as it cools).

Transfer cups to a wire rack to cool completely (30 to 35 minutes). Refrigerate at least 3 hours before serving with whipped cream.
