Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 envelope (1/4 ounce) unflavored gelatin
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup sugar
4 ounces semisweet chocolate, finely chopped
2 tablespoons instant espresso powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 cups milk
Whipped cream, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan, sprinkle gelatin over 1/4 cup cold water, let soften 5 minutes. Add heavy cream and place over low heat. Add sugar, chocolate, espresso powder, and salt. Whisk until chocolate has melted, espresso powder is dissolved, and mixture is well combined, about 2 minutes.
  • Whisk in milk and strain mixture into a large measuring cup (for easy pouring). Divide evenly among six 6-ounce coffee cups or custard cups. Refrigerate until set, at least 3 hours. Serve with a dollop of whipped cream, if desired.

The recipe was unclear and I had to guess at some of the steps. The custards didn't turn out very well.

These custards were very time-consuming to make. I don't think they're worth the effort.

I'm not a fan of the coffee flavor in these custards. I think I would prefer a vanilla custard instead.

These custards are perfect for a quick and easy dessert. They're also a great way to use up leftover coffee.

I added a tablespoon of chocolate chips to the batter and they were amazing! This is a great way to dress up a classic custard recipe.

I substituted almond milk for the milk in the recipe and they turned out great! This is a great recipe for people with dairy allergies.

The custards were a bit runny. I think I might have overcooked them.

These custards were a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend reducing the amount of sugar in the recipe.

I'm not a big fan of coffee, but I still enjoyed these custards. The coffee flavor was subtle and didn't overpower the other flavors.

These custards were absolutely delicious! The coffee flavor was rich and decadent, and the custard itself was smooth and creamy. I will definitely be making these again.
