Dark Chocolate Creme Brulee is creamy, smooth and full of rich chocolate. Don’t let ‘brulee’ scare you, this dessert recipe is very easy to make!

This Dark Chocolate Creme Brulee is an Olympic Gold Medalist in the culinary dessert world according to Big Daddy. For someone who doesn’t like many desserts, he flips over this Dark Chocolate Creme Brulee. It’s rich and creamy yet, amazingly, light and fluffy as well. It’s sweet, but not tooo sweet.And it’s oh-so-elegant for the fanciest dinner party.

I developed it as a brulee with caramelized sugar on top. After trying it both with and without the brulee, Big Daddy prefers his without. Honestly, it’s awesome either way. Do the taste test and decide for yourself.

Olympic Gold Metal!

Dark Chocolate Creme Brulee

Author: Paula Jones

Ingredients

5 oz bittersweet chocolate broken into pieces
2 c heavy cream
1/4 c milk
1 tsp expresso powder
6 egg yolks
Juice of 1 orange about 1/4 cup
1/4 c sugar
1 tsp vanilla
6 T sugar and kitchen blowtorch if you plan to brulee top

Instructions

Preheat oven 325 degrees.
Place ramekins in a pan.
Pour cream in a heavy sauce pan and heat to simmer. Add expresso and broken chocolate. Whisk and watch closely. Do not over cook. Remove from heat. Add milk; stir.
In a small bowl, combine juice of one orange. Add vanilla, sugar and egg yolks; whisk until well incorporated.
Temper the egg mixture with cream mixture, then stir tempered eggs into cream mixture. Whisk until everything is completely combined and smooth.
Pour the custard into 6 ramekins in a water bath.
Bake 30 to 35 minutes in 325 degree oven. Custards will be set around the edges and soft in the center.
Cool completely, then refrigerate, uncovered until cold.
*If you wish to brulee top, sprinkle sugar evenly over top. (It may help to pick up ramekin and swirl to evenly distribute sugar) Heat with a kitchen torch until caramelized.
