I've made this dessert several times and it always turns out amazingly well. It's simple and can be whipped up in no time.

I wanted something easy to make after a hard day. I have two girls under 16 months old, and I needed something quick. I couldn't believe something so easy would #1 WORK and #2 be so elegent. They set up in 20 minutes, and were delicious. Although, very rich, I think they would have been really good with a strong cup of coffee. Thank you Rachael!

I love pot de creme and I've tried many recepies. This one is the best and the easiest chocolate one. Just make sure you make it at least a day ahead, and enjoy!
Super easy, super good

I made this for friends and we all scraped the tea cups absolutely clean. It's awesome! It needs to set up about 2 hours before serving. Serves 4 in demitasse cups, 2 in teacups, or 1 if you're home by yourself and no one knows you made it. Highly highly addictive recipe, and it takes no time at all to make.
Fantastic made easy

This was the most simple, elegant, and scrumptious dessert I have ever made. It literally takes 2 minutes to prepare. It sets up beautifully and tastes divine. I served it in beautiful china demitasse cups with a small cookie on the side of the saucer. My guests raved and have asked me to make it the next time they come over.

Oh my god I think I love you! I love chocolate mousse but sometimes have it come out runny when folding egg whites and I find chocolate pudding too thick. This was just perfect - very similar consistency to mousse without the mess and absolutely delicious and so easy. Thank you!!! Only thing I changed was I used 4 tablespoons of cherry grand marnier - yummy!

This is my "go to dessert" when I need a fabulous dessert quickly. I have experimented with different chocolates and have even changed the liquor or left it out,in which case it tastes like a large truffle. I have doubled the recipe and halved it. It is fabulous.

Unfortunately I tried doubling this recipe and when I brought it out for my company it was the consistency of soup. It tasted delicious but did not set up. As a result I have not tried again. Would prefer to make choc mousse.

This is like a decadent chocolate mousse...and the easiest chocolate mousse I've ever made. It's very filling so a little will go a long way. I used Ameretto instead of Hazelnut Liqour and it was amazing. I would also consider using Bailey's or Kaluha as well.

I have made this easy, yet delicious, dessert many times now. It literally takes 5 minutes to make and garners rave reviews from friends and family. In addition to using several different liquors (including Kahlua and rum), I have substituted the liquor and used espresso a few times with no problem also. I have also garnished it with Pepperidge Farm Pirouette cookies instead of whipped cream for a different flair. You can serve these in your Grandmother's demitasse cups for a fancy dinner or in plastic wine glasses for an easy cleanup at a barbecue and either is beautiful. If you are looking for a simple, elegant dessert this is the way to go!
Easy, breezy, awesome!

My 6 year old daughter and I saw it so we had to try it. I replaced the alcohol with hazelnut flavored coffee syrup. It was delish !! My kids can help make it because it is just so easy. We found a sample pack of flavored syrup so we have gotten creative. This is a keeper.

This recipe was wonderful and SO easy. The texture is superb, and it would make a great pie filling also. Next time I think I would either cut the rum in half or eliminate it all together. The alcohol taste was just a little too strong for my taste. Kaluha might be good.

Saw this recipe on Oprah during the best cakes show. I was so intrigued I tried it the next day. WOW! This it so simple and so terrific. It packs a chocolate wallop in a silky texture. Outstanding! The second time I made it, I used 1 T dark rum, and 1 tsp vanilla extract..it toned down the sharpness that the alcohol adds just enough. I love this recipe!

This is one of the easiest desserts I've ever made. OK- strawberries and whipped cream might have been less work, but for the amount of work and time invested in this recipe, the results are spectacular. This dessert tastes and looks like a truffle filling- pure and unadultered. This is for the serious chocolate fans only as it is bound to be too much for some. For me and my husband, it was perfect. A quick, easy to prepare indulgence after dinner. I will make again for sure.

I have made similar recipes in the past, but this one was a bit smoother and creamier. I have real demitasse cups and it filled 5 of them to the top. Pretty presentation with the cups and saucers. I sprinkled a tiny bit of cocoa powder over the top and it looked elegant. Thank you.

You know the part where the hot milk is supposed to melt the chocolate? Yeah, it didn't really happen like that for me. So I heated the mixture up some more but was afraid of seizing the chocolate, or whatever it is that it does, and the overall texture just wasn't great. Tasty, but gritty.

The recipe doesn't instruct you to make the cake mix as directed and then add the additional ingredients. It definitely must have only the extra-large baking cups, very difficult to remove from the pan.
