Made with simple ingredients like dark chocolate, light sour cream, and a hint of cocoa powder, this recipe promises a delightful experience with every spoonful.

Ingredients:

1 egg
50g
1.50 tbsp all-purpose white wheat flour
22g
1.50 cups light sour cream
340g
1/2 cup milk (1% fat)
120g
1 cup dark chocolate
230g
1 tsp dry cocoa powder
5g

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Prepare the Chocolate:
Place the dark chocolate in a heatproof bowl. Melt the chocolate either by using a double boiler method or by microwaving in 20-second intervals, stirring between each interval until smooth. Set aside to cool slightly.
3. Mix the Egg and Flour:
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk the egg lightly. Add the all-purpose flour and whisk until the mixture is smooth and free of lumps.
4. Combine Dairy Ingredients:
In a separate bowl, combine the light sour cream and milk. Stir until well mixed.
5. Blend Chocolate and Cocoa Powder:
Add the melted dark chocolate and dry cocoa powder to the sour cream and milk mixture. Stir until the mixture is smooth and uniform in color.
6. Combine All Mixtures:
Gradually pour the chocolate mixture into the bowl with the egg and flour mixture. Stir gently but thoroughly to combine all the ingredients into a smooth batter.
7. Pour into Ramekins:
Divide the batter evenly among 4 to 6 small ramekins or oven-safe pots.
8. Bake:
Place the ramekins in a large baking dish. Fill the baking dish with hot water to reach halfway up the sides of the ramekins, creating a water bath. Carefully transfer the baking dish to the preheated oven.
9. Bake until Set:
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chocolate pots are set but still slightly wobbly in the center.
10. Cool:
Remove the ramekins from the water bath and let them cool at room temperature. Once cooled, refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until thoroughly chilled.
11. Serve:
Serve chilled, optionally garnished with a dollop of whipped cream or a sprinkle of cocoa powder.

Tips:

- Ensure your dark chocolate is finely chopped for even melting.

- Use a double boiler to melt the chocolate gently without burning.

- Whisk the egg thoroughly to incorporate well into the mixture.

- For a creamier texture, you can substitute light sour cream with heavy cream.

- Allow the chocolate pots to chill in the refrigerator for at least two hours to set properly.

- Top with fresh berries or a dollop of whipped cream to enhance the presentation.

These decadent chocolate pots are a perfect end to any meal. With their rich flavor and creamy texture, they are bound to satisfy any chocolate craving. Enjoy them chilled, with a topping of your choice, and relish in the deliciousness!
