    Takes about 3 hours to cool. Put the taste is pretty rich.

    it was very easy to make, i doubled the choc, but otherwise followed the recipe, it seemed like it should have been a little thicker, but the taste was AMAZING! very good, my friends were impressed.

    I do not understand why this recipe hasn't received good reviews. I found this recipe easy and delicious. The first time I made this dessert I added 4 oz of chocolate because the candy bar I used was 4 oz. It had a wonderful chocolate flavor and velvety texture. The next time I added even more chocolate and the color was fabulous and the flavor was even more outstanding.

    To thicken the ingredients you need to cook over medium heat for about 7 minutes stirring constantly. I boil the water before I add it to the pan. The cooking time is accurate. This is a no fail, easy recipe.

    Yes, it was hugely disappointing. I think the recipe would be fine if 2 Cups of Heavy Cream were used instead of 4 Cups since very other recipe for Pots de Creme calls for 2 Cups of Cream or Milk with 6 Egg Yolks. It must have been a typo and a very unfortunate one at that.

    What a waste of good chocolate this was! I tried it twice. I also halved the recipe, heated the water, and ended up with sickly sweet chocolate soup...I thought the instructions could have been more clear but seemed simple enough. Very dissappointing.

    Something is seriously off with this recipe -- first, it's poorly written and leaves out some steps, requiring you to intuit what's next. Second, I made it almost exactly as written (halved it, and wound up with chocolate soup that never firmed up, except for the crust on top. Quite a disappointment.

    I just did this recipe 2 days ago, and the chocolate proportion is just wrong.

    This recipe is much better if you double or even triple the chocolate. Otherwise it's really nothing special.
