I love to watch cooking shows on PBS. This was a recipe that I got from watching Caprial & Johns Kitchen. Super rich dessert, so you have been forewarned. It is easy and elegant for the dessert impaired! Your friends will think you went to cooking school! Ingredients:
2 cups chocolate wafers, ground |
1/4 cup cocoa nibs, ground |
1/4 cup sugar |
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted |
1 1/2 cups heavy cream |
2 tablespoons unsalted butter |
12 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped (80% cocoa content is best) |
1/4 cup dark rum |
1 cup heavy cream, whipped to hold a soft peak |
Directions:
1. To prepare the crust, place the cookie crumbs, nibs, and sugar in a bowl and mix well.
2. Add the butter and mix until well moistened. Press into a 10 inch flan pan with a removable bottom. Chill.
3. To prepare the filling, heat the cream, butter and rum in a sauce pan until boiling. Pour the hot cream over the chopped chocolate and let stand about 2 minutes. Whisk until smooth.
4. Pour into prepared shell.
5. Chill at least 2 hours.
6. Serve cold with soft whipped cream.
