Crème Au Chocolat / Baked Chocolate Cream

French always have some love for ( flour , butter , cream , sugar ,  chocolates , eggs ) = desserts .  Most of the french desserts are unique , simple yet delicious. Crème Au Chocolat  is one classic dessert which was invented by french . It is quite similar to chocolate mousse . Crème Au Chocolat is a baked version of Chocolate mousse , that is the Simple way i could  explain about this dessert .

 This dessert is light , airy , creamy , chocolaty ... ( I could actually keep on describing ).

Thank you +Priya Suresh for the nice french dessert recipe . This time on Home Bakers Challenge , members were actually exploring French cuisines .  I managed to complete three out of four . I had book marked the left out recipe ( Faluche du Nord ) and will do it when time permits .

 My recipe for other french bakes click on -  Eggless Biscuit Sables , French Baguettes 

I used the same ingredients as +Priya Suresh  mention but i didn't follow the exact measurements. I used my own. But it turned out to be perfect .

 The recipe below will be enough for 2 people ( if you use smaller sized Ramekins) . I used a Medium Ramekins and two of us shared it.

Ingredients :

Cream - 1/3 Cup

Milk Chocolate chips - 1/3 Cup - ( you can use semi sweet chocolate / dark chocolate )

Milk - 1/3 Cup

Egg yolk - 1

Vanilla - 1/4 Tsp

Instructions :

• Boil the milk and cream in a medium heat .
• Meanwhile , Mix the yolk and vanilla paste till the yolk turns into creamy and buttery in color. Keep that aside.
• When the cream mixtures comes to the boiling stage , take off the heat , add the chocolate chips and let it sit for a minute . Then stir it till the chocolate is completely  melted .
• Meanwhile Preheat the oven at 350 F and Boil some water in the kettle /Stove.
• Now this is the important stage where we are going to be in action for two minutes at a stretch . We are going to use both the hands . One hand is going to pour the chocolate mixture into the yolk where the other hand is going to whisk it vigorously . If you think this stage is not important then you will end up eating Chocolate Egg Scramble.
• Pour the water in the baking tray . Keep the Ramekins in the tray . Pour the chocolate mixture into Ramekins and bake for 30 minutes.
• Allow it to cool completely . Cling wrap it and refrigerate it for couple of hours or over night .
• Garnish it and serve .

Anyone who wants to dig into it ??????????? You are Welcome !!!!

Notes - 

• Original recipe called for Dark chocolate and sugar . As i am not a big fan of dark chocolate i used milk chocolate and omitted the sugar .
• If you are going to use Dark chocolate , add sugar to the yolk and mix it completely and proceed with the recipe.
• Do not bake it more than the time mentioned , as it might effect the taste and the texture .
• Make sure the eggs are in room temperature
• Once it is baked , you might feel that the dessert is not baked in the middle . But after you refrigerate it  It will be just OK.
