Source of Recipe


Josh Green, Ponti Seafood Grill (Seattle, Washington)



List of Ingredients



• 12 ounces heavy cream
  
• 12 ounces whole milk
  
• 3 ounces chocolate
  
• 2 whole eggs
  
• 2 egg yolks
  
• 6 ounces sugar
  






Instructions



1. Pour cream and milk into a saucepan. Bring to a rolling boil.
   At the same time, partially melt the chocolate in a double boiler. Slowly add the hot cream to the chocolate and whisk together.
   
   
2. In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, egg yolks and sugar together. Add the hot chocolate mixture, a little at a time. Once all the chocolate is added to the eggs, refrigerate the mixture until it cools down to 40° F.
   
   
3. Pour the mixture into 2-inch wide and 2-inch tall baking ramekins. Place in a deep brownie pan, then add water 1 inch deep. Cover with foil and bake at 300° F for 30 to 45 minutes, until the custard is set.
