Deep Chocolate CreamA toast, to my first attempt at PH's Desserts! Here's how it went.
Gather The Troops As you can see the ingredient list is rather straight forward, as was the entire process. A nice, slow and steady start to my learning curve, much welcomed.
Yolks & Sugar Beaten To Ribbon Stage
Milk & Luscious Heavy Cream Simmering Away
At this stage, the butter and sugar mix goes in for another gentle simmer.
Half The Warm Mix Into The Chocolate Chips
The Rest In & Stirred Up Good
Pour, Chill & SetTaste Test: The cream was good, but instead of the strong, dark, bittersweet chocolate as instructed in the book, I went ahead and used semi sweet chocolate chips. Why the diversion? Coz they were on half price. Never said I wasn't cheap.
Now, if you should do the same, please, for the sake of your kidneys, lipids and blood sugar levels, half the amount of sugar you use. I found mine too sweet for my taste, although my testers rather enjoyed the sugary treat. Ah well, nothing better to reel them in for the ride.
