Chocolate Cups with Whipped Cream
Recipe courtesy Rachael Ray

Ingredients
2/3 cup whole milk
1 egg
2 tablespoons sugar
Pinch salt
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
2 tablespoons hazelnut liqueur or dark rum
4 demitasse cups
1 cup whipping cream
2 tablespoons sugar
Mint sprigs, for garnish, optional

Instructions
Heat milk in a small pan over moderate heat until it
comes to a boil.

In blender or food processor combine egg, sugar, a pinch of salt, semisweet chips,
and liqueur. Run processor or turn on blender to low setting. Pour in boiling milk
in a slow stream. The hot milk will cook egg and melt chocolate. Process or blend
1 minute, until smooth.

Spoon chocolate into 4 demitasse cups and chill. After dinner, beat cream until
soft peaks form. Add a little sugar and beat to combine. Top the chocolate cups
with a dollop of cream and garnish each cup with mint sprigs.

Place cups on saucers and serve with demitasse spoons. If you use teacups, this
recipe will yield 2 cups, rather than 4.
