Steps

Read instructions and get ready to cook

1
Heat milk, cream, and sugar

In a saucepan, combine milk, cream, and sugar. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until steaming and the sugar has dissolved.

2
Chop chocolate

While the milk mixture heats, finely chop the dark chocolate.

3
Add chocolate

Remove the milk mixture from the heat and add the chopped chocolate. Whisk until the chocolate has melted and the mixture is smooth.

4
Temper egg yolks

In a bowl, whisk egg yolks. Slowly pour about 1 cup of the hot chocolate mixture into the yolks, whisking constantly to temper them.

5
Combine mixtures

Pour the tempered egg yolk mixture back into the saucepan, whisking constantly.

6
Cook custard

Cook the custard over low heat, stirring constantly, until it thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 5-7 minutes. Do not let it boil.

7
Add vanilla and salt

Remove the custard from the heat and stir in vanilla extract and salt.

8
Strain custard

Strain the custard through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean bowl to remove any lumps.

9
Chill custard

Cover the surface of the custard with plastic wrap to prevent a skin from forming. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until thoroughly chilled.

10
Serve

Spoon the chocolate custard into individual serving dishes and serve chilled.
