Method
Prepare Custard
Melt Chocolate
In a heatproof bowl, melt the dark chocolate over a double boiler or in a microwave until smooth. Set aside to cool slightly.
Heat Cream and Milk
In a saucepan, combine the heavy cream and milk. Heat over medium heat until just simmering, then remove from heat.
Whisk Egg Yolks and Sugar
In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, granulated sugar, cornstarch, vanilla extract, and sea salt until smooth.
Combine Mixtures
Slowly pour the hot cream mixture into the egg yolk mixture, whisking constantly to temper the eggs. Once combined, stir in the melted chocolate.
Cook Custard
Return the mixture to the saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until it thickens (about 5-7 minutes). Do not boil.
Chill Custard
Pour the custard into serving dishes and let it cool to room temperature. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until set.
Prepare Toppings
Whip Cream
In a bowl, combine heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Using a hand mixer or stand mixer, whip until soft peaks form.
Serve
Top the chilled chocolate custard with whipped cream and sprinkle with chopped roasted almonds before serving.
