Ingredients

  • 425ml double cream
  • 3 egg yolks
  • 80g golden caster sugar
  • 50g plain chocolate, broken into pieces

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 150C/ gas mark 2.
  • Bring the cream up to the boil over a low heat. Turn off and allow to cool slightly.
  • Add the chocolate to the cream and stir with a balloon whisk until fully incorporated.
  • In a separate bowl, mix together the egg yolks and half of the sugar. Whisk in the cream and chocolate mixture. Pour into four ramekins.
  • Place the ramekins in a roasting tin and half fill with hot water. Place a piece of foil loosely over the tin.
  • Cook in the oven for approximately 25-30 minutes until firm around the edges but still slightly wobbly in the middle.
  • Refrigerate for at least 4 hours.
  • Sprinkle 1-2 teaspoons of the remaining sugar over each ramekin so that it thinly covers the surface of the brulees.
  • Use a blowtorch or hot grill to caramelise the sugar. Serve.
