Chocolate Pots



I first discovered this recipe way back when I watched Jamie Oliver's cooking show, his first, I think, called The Naked Chef.  This is literally all of your chocolate dreams come true. The beauty of this dessert is that it is so smooth, silky and rich. If you want to lighten the texture into more of a mousse then follow the recipe but fold in 2 stiffly whipped egg whites. Small servings are the key – I use espresso cups as this is the ideal size. Chocolate pots are brilliant for dinner parties as you can make them up the day before and then stick them in the fridge until needed.
