Mmmmmmmmm! Great use for those left-over egg yolks. I used 2 oz. dark chocolate, (because that's all I had), and 6 oz. chocolate chips. It took several minutes for the egg mixture to come up to 160, (I used an instant-read thermometer), and I strained the mixture, just in case. That which didn't make it into the ramekins was VERY tasty. :)
