Method

  • step 1

    Mix the caramel with the salt, divide between 2 small glasses and chill.

  • step 2

    Melt the chocolates together in a glass bowl set over a pan of barely simmering water. Snap the grissini into short lengths, then dip each end into the chocolate to coat a little. Sit on a wire rack for the chocolate to drip and set a little, then dip the chocolate ends into the sugar to coat. Sit in an airtight container lined with baking parchment and chill to set until ready to serve.

  • step 3

    Stir the double cream and milk into the remaining melted chocolate until smooth, then scrape into a jug. Slowly pour on top of the caramel, around the edges first. Chill the pots for at least 2 hrs, or up to 24 hrs.

  • step 4

    To serve, scatter a little more sea salt on top of each pot, then add one or two sugar-tipped grissini.

This was easy to make, but you must be a chocolate lover as it was very rich. Also not sure if I did something wrong but the chocolate bit was very thick, my spoon stood up in it.

Made as a Valentines dessert. An easy recipe to follow and make. I made the exact amount but like other comments feel it makes 4 portions......Very rich. Tip: I made poppyseed heart biscuits as an extra.

Very simple and absolutely delicious. Tips:

1. Everyone's right about the serving size. I like BIG portions, but this nearly finished me off. Divide between at least 4. (Think Gu pot portions...you can always have two!)

2. I used 150ml double cream, after reading the comments. The texture…
