Pud - Jamie Oliver chocolate pots are the easiest pud to do and taste good.  Like Jamie I serve them in Espresso Cups so the recipe below will do around 8 cups.

Chocolate Pots

• Contributed by Jamie Oliver

• SERVINGS: 8

Ingredients

1. 2 cups heavy cream
2. 3/4 pound semisweet or bittersweet chocolate, at room temperature, coarsely chopped
3.  2 large egg yolks
4. 3 tablespoons dark rum
5. 3 tablespoons unsalted butter

1. In a medium saucepan, heat the cream until bubbles appear around the edge. Remove the pan from the heat, add the chocolate and let stand for 1 minute, then stir until smooth.
2. Whisk the egg yolks in a small bowl, then whisk in 1/2 cup of the hot chocolate cream. Scrape this mixture into the saucepan and whisk constantly until smooth. Stir in the rum and butter. Pour the custard into eight 1/2-cup ramekins or espresso cups and refrigerate until chilled, at least 4 hours.
