Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 150C/ gas mark 2.
  2. Bring the cream up to the boil over a low heat. Turn off and allow to cool slightly.
  3. Add the chocolate to the cream and stir with a balloon whisk until fully incorporated.
  4. In a separate bowl, mix together the egg yolks and half of the sugar. Whisk in the cream and chocolate mixture. Pour into four ramekins.
  5. Place the ramekins in a roasting tin and half fill with hot water. Place a piece of foil loosely over the tin.
  6. Cook in the oven for approximately 25-30 minutes until firm around the edges but still slightly wobbly in the middle.
  7. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours.
  8. Sprinkle 1-2 teaspoons of the remaining sugar over each ramekin so that it thinly covers the surface of the brulees.
  9. Use a blowtorch or hot grill to caramelise the sugar. Serve.
