1 cup heavy cream 2 tbsp amaretto (see notes for alternatives) 2 tbsp brown sugar 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips 2 egg yolks 2 tbsp butter
Pour the heavy cream into a small saucepan and place over a medium heat. Heat the cream until it is almost boiling, but don't let it boil.
Remove the cream from the heat and set aside for 1 minute to cool slightly.
Whilst the cream is cooling add the brown sugar to the amaretto and stir to dissolve.
Add in the chocolate chips to the hot cream and stir until they have melted.
Add the amaretto mixture to the chocolate, along with the egg yolks.
Mix well together and then lastly stir in the butter.
Pour the mixture into small pots and chill for 4 hours or until needed.
Instead of amaretto, you could use dark rum or an orange liquor. To remove the alcohol use extra cream instead.
