I don’t want to know.

This rich, creamy, oh so chocolatey dessert is decadent for sure.
It’s also quick and easy.
No baking required.
How to Make Decadent Chocolate Pots de Creme
I promised quick and easy … there are only five ingredients, seven if you count the whipped cream.
It takes all of 10 minutes to make and a couple of hours to chill.
Heat milk, combine ingredients in a blender pour into small ramekins and chill.
That’s it!
When ready to serve, make whipping cream and garnish with mint … or a raspberry.

The perfect pairing for Decadent Chocolate Pots de Creme.
‘Emily in Paris Fans Have Fallen Head Over Heels for This Cocktail’ so says this article.
In season three you’ll find Emily and friends enjoying Kir Royale’s.
A Kir Royale is simply a glass of champagne with a shot of Creme de Cassis, a black currant liqueur.
My Raspberry Kir Royale version replaces Creme de Cassis with Chambord, a black raspberry liqueur.
I’ve been collecting vintage silver-plate trays which are fun for serving.
You can find them in consignment stores and Etsy always has a nice selection.
So there you have it.
