Steps:
- Place the chocolate chips in a blender. Crack in the eggs, and then add the orange liqueur and salt. Pulse until the chocolate chips are partially pulverized, 5 to 7 times.
- With the blender running, carefully pour in the coffee in a steady stream through the small opening in the lid. The coffee will melt the chocolate and turn it into a smooth mixture. Turn off the blender when the mixture is very smooth. Pour the mixture into small mason jars, pretty wine glasses or demitasse cups.
- Place the jars on a tray and refrigerate them until firm, at least 2 or 3 hours. Yum!
- Whip the cream with the sugar and generously plop it onto the top of each glass. Cut a strip of orange peel, cut into strips and decorate with the orange peel twists.

Steps:
- Place the chocolate in a blender. Whisk the milk, 1 cup cream, egg yolks, granulated sugar and salt in a heavy-bottomed medium saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring constantly with a heatproof spatula, until the mixture is thick enough to coat the spatula and almost boiling, 5 to 6 minutes.

Cover and hold the lid with a thick kitchen towel; blend until combined and smooth, stopping to scrape down the sides of the blender as needed. Divide the chocolate mixture among ramekins or small cups and refrigerate until set, about 2 hours.

CLASSIC FRENCH CHOCOLATE POTS DE CRèME
Outside of France, for some reason, Pots de Crème are the underdog of French custards. They don't receive nearly as much love as crème brulées do - but if you go to France, it's a whole different story. The French love their dairy products: yogurts of all kinds and what we call the "crèmes desserts". If you ever visit a French supermarket, you will assuredly stumble on our entire refrigerated aisle(s) devoted to yogurts, fromages blancs, flans, mousses, faisselles and all kinds of custards and heavenly pots de crèmes.

Steps:
- Step 1 - Preheat your oven to 325F(160C) with a rack in the middle.
- Step 2 - In a medium saucepan, slowly warm up the heavy cream with the chopped chocolate over medium-low heat. Do not bring up to a boil - just warm up enough to melt the chocolate. Stir occasionally and remove from the heat when the chocolate is melted.
- Step 3 - In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, sugar and salt together for 2 minutes until pale and fluffy. Pour 2 tablespoons of the hot cream into the egg yolk mixture and whisk (this tempers the egg yolks so they don't curdle later). Slowly stir in the rest of the hot cream while continuously whisking.
- Step 4 - Fill 6 small [120ml - ½ cup] pots or ramekins with the chocolate cream. Place the pots into a large baking dish and fill this dish with hot water ¾ up the sides of the pots.
- Bake for 30 minutes. Remove the dish from the oven and carefully remove the ramekins from the baking dish. Let cool completely to room temperature before covering with plastic wrap and refrigerating.
- Chill for at least 3 hours before enjoying. For serving, top each pot with a dollop of whipped cream and chocolate shavings.

Steps:
- Bring 1 cup cream to simmer in medium saucepan. Remove from heat. Add chocolate; whisk until smooth. Whisk in 2 tablespoons orange liqueur. Spoon 1 tablespoon chocolate mixture into each of eight 3/4-cup custard cups. Place cups in freezer. Reserve remaining chocolate mixture.
- Combine milk, peel and 2 cups cream in medium saucepan. Scrape in seeds from vanilla beans; add beans. Bring to simmer. Whisk yolks and sugar in large bowl to blend. Whisk hot cream mixture into yolk mixture. Let stand 30 minutes. Strain through fine sieve set over medium bowl, pressing on solids. Whisk 2 tablespoons orange liqueur into custard.
- Preheat oven to 325°F. Ladle custard over chocolate in cups. Place cups in large baking pan. Pour enough hot water into pan to come halfway up sides of cups. Bake until custards are set, about 50 minutes. Remove cups from water. Stir chocolate mixture over low heat until just pourable if necessary. Spoon generous 1 tablespoon chocolate mixture over each. Chill overnight. Serve cold.
Tips:
- Use good quality chocolate for the best flavor. A semisweet or bittersweet chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 50% is recommended.
- Make sure the yogurt is plain and unsweetened. If using Greek yogurt, be sure to strain it first to remove excess whey.
- Candied orange peel can be made ahead of time and stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
- To make the chocolate sauce, use a heavy-bottomed saucepan to prevent scorching. Stir the sauce constantly until it is smooth and thick.
- Pour the chocolate yogurt mixture into individual ramekins or jars. This will make it easier to serve and enjoy.
- Chill the chocolate yogurt pots de creme for at least 4 hours, or overnight, before serving. This will allow them to set and develop their full flavor.
Conclusion:
Chocolate yogurt pots de creme with candied orange peel is a delicious and elegant dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be made ahead of time, making it a great option for busy hosts.
