Chocolate Pops

7 ingredients
8 steps

Ingredients

  • 6 ounces best-quality bittersweet chocolate, minimum 70 percent cocoa solids
  • 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons heavy cream
  • 1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon whole milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon allspice
  • *1 egg
  • 8 (1/4 cup) pots or custard cups

Directions

  1. 1
    Crush the chocolate into smithereens in the food processor.
  2. 2
    Heat the cream and milk until just about boiling, add the vanilla and allspice and pour through the funnel over the chocolate.
  3. 3
    Let stand for 30 seconds.
  4. 4
    Process for 30 seconds, then crack the egg down the funnel and process for 45 seconds.
  5. 5
    Pour into whatever little cups you're serving in, and sit them in the refrigerator for 6 hours or overnight.
  6. 6
    But remember to take them out of the refrigerator a good 20 minutes before you want them to be eaten; the chill interferes with their luscious, silky richness.
  7. 7
    This makes 2 cups altogether: enough to fill 8 little pots of approximately 1/4 cup capacity.
  8. 8
    But if you've got only bigger cups, just augment quantities.
