Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 325°F (163°C).
-
Place the chocolate in a heatproof bowl and set aside.
-
In a saucepan, heat the heavy cream, whole milk, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and salt over medium heat until it starts to simmer.
-
Pour the hot cream mixture over the chocolate and let it sit for a few minutes to melt the chocolate.
-
In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks until smooth.
-
Slowly pour the chocolate mixture into the egg yolks while whisking constantly.
-
Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a large measuring cup or bowl.
-
Divide the mixture evenly among four ramekins or small oven-safe dishes.
-
Place the ramekins in a baking dish and fill the dish with enough hot water to reach halfway up the sides of the ramekins.
-
Carefully transfer the baking dish to the preheated oven and bake for about 30 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center is still slightly jiggly.
-
Remove the ramekins from the water bath and let them cool to room temperature.
-
Once cooled, cover the ramekins with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight, to set.
-
Serve chilled and enjoy!
