150 g dark chocolate (70% cocoa)

Instructions

Step 1: To start with our lovely vanilla chocolate pots de creme crumble the cookies in small pieces and divide evenly into the parfait glasses.

Step 2: For the chocolate cream. soak the gelatin in cold water. Add the milk, vanilla and salt to a saucepan. Bring to the boil, then remove from the heat.

Step 3: Cream the egg yolks and sugar with a hand mixer. Gradually stir in the warm milk.

Step 4: Pour the mixture back into the saucepan. Slowly heat while stirring until the cream thickens (do not let it boil, otherwise the egg yolk will curdle!). The cream has the right consistency when it stays on the spoon and no longer runs thin.

Step 5: Pour the cream into a bowl.

Step 6: Squeeze out the gelatin and dissolve in the hot mixture. Chill the cream about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 7: Whip the cream. When the cream is stiff carefully fold in the vanilla mixture. Pour the vanilla cream into the glasses and refrigerate until set.

Step 8: To prepare the chocolate cream, finely chop the dark chocolate. Add chocolate and butter to a heatproof bowl over a water bath over low heat. Stir frequently until the chocolate is completely melted. Let cool.

Step 9: In a stand mixer beat the eggs with the sugar and salt until thick and fluffy. Fold in the melted chocolate.

Step 10: Whisk whipping cream and vanilla extract until stiff.

Step 11: Carefully fold in whipped cream into the chocolate mixture. Pour onto the vanilla cream and refrigerate for 4 hours.

Step 12: Decorate the vanilla chocolate pots de creme with chocolate shavings, cookie crumbs and fresh orange.
