🍫 Dark Chocolate Pots de Crème with Espresso & Sea Salt

Silky French-style chocolate custards infused with a hint of espresso and topped with a sprinkle of flaky sea salt. Creamy, deeply chocolaty, and beautifully indulgent — no baking required.

⸻

Ingredients (makes 4 small servings):
• 6 oz (170g) high-quality dark chocolate (60–70%), finely chopped
• 2 large egg yolks
• 2 tbsp granulated sugar
• 1 cup (240ml) heavy cream
• ¼ cup (60ml) whole milk
• 1 tsp instant espresso powder
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• Pinch of salt
• Flaky sea salt & whipped cream (for topping)

Instructions:
1. Melt chocolate: Place chopped chocolate in a heatproof bowl.
2. Heat custard base: In a saucepan, whisk together egg yolks and sugar. Add cream, milk, espresso powder, and salt. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens and coats the back of a spoon (do not boil).
3. Combine: Pour the hot mixture over the chocolate. Let sit 1 minute, then stir until smooth. Add vanilla.
4. Chill: Pour into small ramekins or glasses. Cover and chill for at least 2 hours, until set.
5. Serve: Top with a dollop of whipped cream and a pinch of flaky sea salt.
