Chocolate Pots

The chocolate pots are easy to make and are best prepared a day or two ahead. They shouldn’t be made too large as they are very rich. The richness will depend on the quality of the chocolate - the more bitter it is, the better the result will be, and I recommend going for chocolate with a cocoa butter content of between 55 and 70%. The recipe is adapted from one that was used at the old royal courts of France.
