Chocolate Pots de Crème #SundaySupper

I’ve had the cookbook, Small-Batch Baking for Chocolate Lovers by Debby Maugans for  a few years. So when the Sunday Supper theme for this week was announced as Valentine recipes for two, I knew exactly from where I’d get my inspiration. I immediately settled on Chocolate Pots de Crème, rich cups of silky dark chocolate custard. I added some Grand Marnier for a touch of orange flavor…but any liqueur would be lovely.


Check out all the incredible Recipes for Two from my Sunday Supper friends. These small batches are perfect for you empty nesters or if your low cholesterol diet doesn’t permit eating a big slab of cake for 5 nights in a row. I’m sounding ancient here. Besides desserts, though, there are delectable appetizers, entrees and drinks. Tons of marvelous inspiration…I need to pin them all.
