Day One: Simple Chocolate Pots
This week I will be sharing fantastic chocolate recipes. Today: Simple Chocolate Pots.
What you need (makes 4)
Food processor
100g of good couverture chocolate chopped up
250ml double cream
40g muscovado sugar
1 vanilla pod split and scraped
1 egg
Fresh raspberries – 1 punnett for decoration
Icing sugar and mint
What you do
Place the chocolate in the food processor and chop into small pieces. Meanwhile place the cream, sugar and vanilla into a pan and bring to the boil.
Pour into the food processor and leave for one minute. Switch on and add the egg for a further 20 seconds.
Pour into small ramekins and chill for at least 2 hours or preferably overnight. Decorate with raspberries and dust with icing sugar and mint.
