From the Vegetarian Epicure, by Anna Thomas. Very rich, great for hardcore chocolate lovers!
Ingredients:
4 large eggs
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
1 1/4 cups evaporated milk
1 cup cream
3 1/2 ounces unsweetened chocolate
butter
Directions:
1. Beat the eggs with the salt, half the sugar, the vanilla, and the almond extract.
2. Heat together the milk, cream, chocolate, and the remaining sugar on medium-low heat until the chocolate has completely melted. Stir with a whisk to blend.
3. Combine the two mixtures and pour into a well buttered baking dish. Place the dish in a pan of hot water and bake at 325 degrees F for 1 hour: a knife inserted in the center should come out clean.
4. Cool in the baking dish, then unmold and chill in the refrigerator. Serve this amazing concentration of chocolate with great quantities of sweetened whipped cream.
