Happy Weekend Friends! ๐Ÿค—

Are you a chocolate lover? ๐Ÿซ If so, you're in for a sweet treat!

Valentine's Day has come and gone, however, February is National Chocolate Lovers Month all month long. Yummm!!! ๐Ÿ’

Since it's officially still February, I'd thought we'd celebrate all the chocolaty goodness that chocolate is with a tempting dessert! ๐Ÿ˜

Today, I'll share with you the recipe for a QUICK and EASY dessert that will surely impress the most discerning chocolate connoisseur...

It's called "The 5 Minute Chocolate Dessert".

Recently, I stumbled upon this gem of a recipe on YouTube courtesy of Chef Raymond Blanc.

To my delight, I was able to prepare this in FIVE MINUTES with surprisingly delicious results! Oh, and with just a FEW INGREDIENTS!

In his how-to video, Chef Blanc stresses the importance of using a high quality bittersweet chocolate. Lucky for me, I had a box of Guittard 70% cacao in the pantry.

Another win with this recipe is that there is NO added sugar!

The 5 Minute Chocolate Dessert Recipe

michellectv_choccust4.jpg

Ingredients


160 grams (5.64 fl oz) of heavy cream
70 grams (2.5 fl oz) of milk
150 grams of 70% cacao bittersweet chocolate
1 whole organic egg
garnish with your choice of toppings


Yield: 2 servings

Directions


  1. First, chop or grate your bar of bittersweet chocolate.

  2. In a small saucepan, heat the milk and cream to a boil. Meanwhile, whisk a whole egg in a separate medium-sized bowl. Once the milk and cream are boiling, remove the saucepan from heat and whisk together the milk, cream and egg. Briskly whisk (in a figure eight motion) to thicken all the combined ingredients.

  3. Next, add chocolate and stir until smooth. Once smooth and creamy, pour into a stemmed cocktail glass and allow to chill and set in the refrigerator for two - three hours.

  4. Once chilled, garnish with whatever toppings you like!

๐Ÿ’กTip: Adding 1/4 teaspoon of pure vanilla bean paste will help to sweeten your chocolate dessert.

That was super easy-peasy! Now, you're ready to serve and enjoy! โค๏ธ

that chocolaty dessert looks like a sliver of smooth, creamy, delectably delightful heavenly bliss! ๐Ÿ˜‹ :D

I figure though that the garnishing "toppings" may have taken a bit more than 5 minutes to "throw together" though! Regardless, looks delicious either way... nom nom nom

ย  ยท ย 7 years agoย 

Haha! You're right @alexpmorris! The chocolate decorations took about 10 minutes more! So happy you enjoyed this dish ; )

ย  ยท ย 7 years agoย 

Sweet desserts with chocolate-a worthy completion of any meal. It is difficult for us to believe that chocolate mass was combined in pre-Columbian America... with spicy spices: there is no, chocolate for us-sweet dessert (and only!).

ย  ยท ย 7 years agoย 

Looks like very hearty fare for Valentine's day.

ย  ยท ย 7 years agoย 

Yup, it's a hearty, chocolaty custard party :P

ย  ยท ย 7 years agoย 

Looks sooo amazing. I just started cooking with chocolate. 100% baking chocolate is my choice. Hard to understand one minding the bitter taste if a true chocolate lover.

Anyway thank for the recipe. Hmm a wisk huh.

I also began using coconut oil for the first time. Amazing stuff.

ย  ยท ย 7 years agoย 

Per the chef's instructions, this works best with 70-80%... otherwise, it would need added sugar.

ย  ยท ย 7 years agoย 

80% then :)
Thanks

Thank you @tesscooks4u!

Congratulationsยก. Before incorporating the chocolate I would put a dash of sarrapia (Dipteryx odorata).
try it, you will not regret

ย  ยท ย 7 years agoย 

Is that legal? And is it a hallucinogenic?

ย  ยท ย 7 years agoย 

Oh, it's legal. Used just like nutmeg, a little is enough. The sarrapia has many uses, as a digestive drink in the Angostura bitters accompanied by whiskey, to flavor tobacco, to make perfumes, in the bechamel sauce...

ย  ยท ย 7 years agoย 

Interesting! And it's available in the U.S.?

ย  ยท ย 7 years agoย 

It seems that in U.S its alimentary use is prohibited, If that is true it is a pity. At present the sarrapia or Fรจve Tonka is highly valued in France. http://www.toildepices.com/wiki/index.phptitle=F%C3%A8ve_tonka

ย  ยท ย 7 years agoย 

Incredible delicious food recipe.I very much like it.And your brilliant photography makes it more amazing.
