| 1 1/2 cups | cup(s) whole milk | 
| 1/2 cup | cup(s) heavy cream | 
| 6 | large eggs yolks | 
| 6 ounces | mexican chocolate, preferably ibarra, finely chopped |

Directions:
1. In a medium saucepan, combine the whole milk with the heavy cream and bring to a simmer over moderately high heat. 
 
2. In a small bowl, beat the egg yolks until combined. Slowly whisk in 1/2 cup of the hot milk, then transfer the mixture to the saucepan. Cook the custard over moderate heat, whisking constantly, until it is slightly thickened, about 2 minutes. Immediately add the finely chopped Mexican and bittersweet chocolate and remove the saucepan from the heat. Stir until the chocolate is completely melted, then strain the mixture through a fine sieve into a large glass measuring cup or bowl. Pour the chocolate mixture into 6 small bowls and refrigerate until the pots de crème are chilled, at least 6 hours or overnight. Serve the pots de crème with unsweetened whipped cream and chocolate shavings.
