    Cut John's recipe in this post in half. 
    Yup.    That's it.   He transcribed it perfectly - almost to the word!

    Also if you have Godiva Dark Chocolate Liquer give it a go. We loved it!

    Her recipe from the book is on her website - https://blog.nomiku.com/monday-nomday-chocolate-pots-de-creme/

    @JohnInCarolina recipe is slightly different. 


    EDIT...

    I was curious if the recipe on her website was the same as in her book and...it isn't. So not only is JIC's slightly different, her own recipe is slightly different. :)

    Some changes have been made to the recipe since she posted it a few years ago. Here's a crappy pic of the page from her book:

    The recipe I posted is a simple doubling of this, plus the liquor.

    Gotcha. Didn't go back and check the recipe you posted to see if there were any other differences than the liquor which I did remember you used.

    Cool whip is good esp if you like some oil in the mix.  We happened to have some of the Redi Whip left over from a recent neighborhood party!!!

    That's freaking hilarious. I forget exactly what it is about Cool WHip but it's some sort of artificial crap they put in it.   I still could eat an entire container without even thinking about.  
    Love The pronunciation. My daughter does something similar.  To her, "original" is pronounced "Ore-Iginal".  Almost as if it's a compound word.

    Just got home from a USS Dallas Engineering Dept mini-reunion in Waterloo, NY (birthplace of Memorial Day - man that place celebrates this sacred holiday to the T). Anyhow I doubled @JohnInCarolina's recipes and somehow ended up with 24 pots. 

    Our hostess did the shopping and purchased some Mexican Coffee Liqueur, turned out amazing. Unfortunately I didn't get any pics, but needless to say they were a huge hit with a bunch of drunken nukes. 

    I am thinking about adding some creamy peanut butter to the next batch I make.

    These were good, John. Made a batch of 5. My pops put his head down and didn't resurface until the spoon was clinking against the empty jar :)

    I made it tonight for a gathering and everyone loved it. I made the whipped cream and added the coffee liquor to that - it worked well

    @caliking, let me get this straight.  We spend the weekend together participating in AW$$2... 

    You skip out on the Day 2 morning work of finishing off the sausage making and bacon, etc curing...

    And I get home to read on the interwebs that you did this instead...?

    WTF?

    Glad to hear these worked out for you Mike! I think if you want some nuttiness, you can mix in some Nutella and maybe some almond extract. @Eggcelsior had an idea along these lines he shared with me.

    Don't forget that I showed up late at Indian Standard Time on day 1 too. Carefully planned and executed. There's only so much I can take of you... Despite the cooler!

    These were actually done the weekend before. Felt I should report back since they were a hit.

    The wife lady will go bananas when/if I  make this. Did you make the dulce de leche the recipe calls for,  or sub it with something off the shelf?
