Ingredients

4 egg yolks
3/4 cup heavy whipping cream
1/2 cup milk
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
5 ounces semisweet chocolate chopped

Instructions

In a medium saucepan, add the heavy whipping cream, milk, egg yolks, sugar, salt, and vanilla extract. Whisk until combined. Cook over medium heat for 5-7 minutes until steamy and almost boiling. Stir constantly. The cream mixture should coat the back of a spoon.
In a blender, add the chopped chocolate then pour the hot cream mixture over it. Blend everything together until smooth.
Pour the chocolate mixture into six small ramekins. Let it chill in the refrigerator for at least two hours.
