Chocolate Brulee with Raspberry Coulis is a decadent dessert that combines the rich flavor of chocolate with the tartness of raspberries. This dish is perfect for any occasion and is sure to impress your guests.
Ingredients (serves 4):
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup whole milk
- 4 egg yolks
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 4 oz semisweet chocolate, chopped
- 1/2 cup fresh raspberries
- 1 tbsp granulated sugar
- 1 tbsp water
To make the Chocolate Brulee, preheat your oven to 325°F. In a medium saucepan, heat the heavy cream and whole milk over medium heat until it begins to simmer. In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, sugar, and vanilla extract until well combined. Slowly pour the hot cream mixture into the egg mixture, whisking constantly.
Add the chopped chocolate to the mixture and stir until it is completely melted and smooth. Pour the mixture into four ramekins and place them in a baking dish. Fill the baking dish with hot water until it reaches halfway up the sides of the ramekins. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the custard is set but still jiggles slightly in the center.
To make the Raspberry Coulis, combine the raspberries, sugar, and water in a small saucepan. Cook over medium heat until the raspberries have broken down and the mixture has thickened slightly. Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any seeds.
To serve, sprinkle a thin layer of granulated sugar over the top of each custard. Use a kitchen torch to caramelize the sugar until it is golden brown and bubbly. Drizzle the Raspberry Coulis over the top of the custards and serve immediately.
This Chocolate Brulee with Raspberry Coulis is a luxurious dessert that is sure to impress. The creamy custard is rich and chocolatey, while the raspberry coulis adds a bright, tangy note. The caramelized sugar on top adds a satisfying crunch and a hint of sweetness. This dish is perfect for a special occasion or a romantic dinner for two.
