Steps:
- Heat half-and-half just up to the scald. Transfer to the canister of a blender (NOT a food processor).
- While running on "high", add the eggs, Amaretto, salt and chocolate chips, in that order. Run until chips melt completely. Pour through a strainer into individual cups (or a pretty serving bowl). Refrigerate overnight until set. Serve with lightly sweetened whipped cream.
- Bailey's, Kahlua or other liqueur can be substituted for the Amaretto. I've also made it without liqueur, and used a few drops of mint extract.
