• 1 cup milk
• 3 egg yolks
• Vanilla bean or extract
• ½ tablespoon gelatin
• 2 ozs. baking chocolate
• 2 tablespoon water
• ½ cup sugar

Melt chocolate in milk. Beat sugar with egg yolks until smooth and creamy. Add little by little to the hot milk, stirring constantly until it comes to the boiling point. Do not allow to boil. Add vanilla and gelatin dissolved in water. Cool, stirring vigorously at first and then from time to time to prevent crust from forming on top.
