Dessert Preparation

1. 1

   Melt the Chocolate

   In a heatproof bowl, melt the dark chocolate and butter together over a pot of simmering water, stirring until smooth.

2. 2

   Prepare the Cream

   In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream with the sugar and vanilla extract until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is warm.

3. 3

   Combine Mixtures

   Remove the chocolate mixture from heat and gradually whisk in the warm cream mixture until fully combined.

4. 4

   Add Eggs

   In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs. Slowly pour the chocolate mixture into the eggs while whisking to temper them. Be careful not to scramble the eggs.

5. 5

   Bake the Dessert

   Pour the combined mixture into ramekins and place in a baking dish. Fill the baking dish with hot water halfway up the sides of the ramekins. Bake in a preheated oven at 160°C (320°F) for 20-25 minutes, or until set around the edges and slightly wobbly in the center.

6. 6

   Cool and Serve

   Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Serve warm, garnished with fresh berries and a sprinkle of sea salt.
