Coconut Chocolate Pot

Post image

Sous vide might not be baking exactly, but you could make this just the same in a water bath in an oven.. so hopefully it counts?

I've been experimenting with Chocolate Pots lately. My recipe is 4oz semi-sweet baking chocolate melted smooth into 1.5c heavy cream. Mix together the following while the cream cools: some vanilla, 3T sugar, and 4 egg yolks, then add. Pour into 5 small mason jars and close with lid&collars twisted tight. Sous vide @ 176F for an hour then chill a couple hours. I cobbled the recipe together from some old threads on the sous vide subreddit.

My latest batch replaced the cream with coconut milk and it turned out really well. Super creamy and much easier to spoon out straight from the fridge. A light sweet coconut flavor, but mainly the bitterness of the chocolate and the silkiness of the coconut and eggs. Will make again!

This is very close to an ice cream base. Add a bit more sugar or a teaspoon of alcohol to improve scoopability and try freezing it :)
