    This isn't as good as his other pastry cream recipe (almond pastry cream. Make that one instead and substitute vanilla and chocolate for the almond paste.

    I made this exactly as directed, except I halved everything and didn't add the vanilla until the end with the butter. Also, since I'm using it as a filling for a coconut cake, I thinned it a bit with some coconut milk. I weighed out the chocolate chips and 3 oz. turned out to be just over 1/3 cup or just under 1/2 cup. Next time I'll just use 1/2 cup. It's very chocolatey and smooth. I used fresh eggs from my hens and the mixture thickened up almost immediately when adding the yolks to the chocolate milk. I don't put plastic on hot food; I don't mind the skin. Next time if needed for a coconut cake, I'll substitute coconut milk for the milk. Even halved, it made a gracious plenty so I'll have enough to make little pudding cups with meringue made from the leftover egg whites.
