Mocha Crème Brule in a Slow Cooker

- Serves 2
- 1 cup heavy cream
- ¼ cup sugar
- 1 tsp espresso powder optional
- 3 egg yolks
- 2 Tbsp chopped dark chocolate
Instructions
- Heat the cream, sugar and espresso until hot in a saucepan.

- In two ramekin dishes divide up the chocolate, then pour over the cream mixture.
- Place into slow cooker and pour in boiling water to half way up the sides of the ramekins.
- Cover and cook on high for 1-2 hours or until custard is set around edges but still soft in center. Remove and cool to room temperature.

- Sprinkle a few teaspoons of raw or Demerara sugar on top of custard and place under broiler or torch until melted. Serve immediately.
