Cream Au Chocolate - Baked chocolate - Step by step - HBC

    Home baker's challenge, gave us French recipes this month. Among the recipes , I picked this baked chocolate , as my son is a chocolate lover. This is very easy recipe and should have the chocolate within 1 day, if not it may loose its creamy texture. Priya of "Priya's Versatile recipes" gave us this month challenge. The sugar level was not enough for me ,so increase the sugar level according to your taste. This dessert is a party pleaser too.

Enjoy this cream with some whipped cream or else with some caramel bites.
 
 
Notes:
* You may see the creme not cooked in the center after baking, dont worry they will turn hard once they gets chilled.
* Don't bake this cream more than 30-35minutes, else they will get harden later and wont taste good.
* Egg yolks need to be at room temperature.
* You can add sugar more or less as per your need.
