4 steps

Ingredients

4 large eggs
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
1 1/4 cups evaporated milk
1 cup cream
3 1/2 ounces unsweetened chocolate
butter

Directions

1

Beat the eggs with the salt, half the sugar, the vanilla, and the almond extract.
2

Heat together the milk, cream, chocolate, and the remaining sugar on medium-low heat until the chocolate has completely melted. Stir with a whisk to blend.
3

Combine the two mixtures and pour into a well buttered baking dish. Place the dish in a pan of hot water and bake at 325 degrees F for 1 hour: a knife inserted in the center should come out clean.
4

Cool in the baking dish, then unmold and chill in the refrigerator. Serve this amazing concentration of chocolate with great quantities of sweetened whipped cream.
