Directions

1

Heat convection oven to 300°F (standard oven: 350°F). Place 24 (5 oz.) ramekins or custard cups in one or two full-size steam table pans.

2

Using wire whisk, stir together heavy cream, sugar, HERSHEY'S SPECIAL DARK Chocolate Chips and instant coffee in large heavy-bottomed saucepan. Heat mixture to boiling over medium heat, stirring constantly. Remove from heat; whisk until mixture is smooth. Gradually add a small amount of hot liquid into egg yolks, stirring constantly. Return egg mixture to saucepan; blend well. Evenly divide custard into ramekins. Pour very hot water into pan to within 1/2-inch of tops of ramekins. Loosely place piece of aluminum foil over pan.

Bake 45 to 55 minutes* or until center is set but still soft. (Custard will continue to cook after removal from oven.) Carefully remove ramekins from water; place on wire rack. Cool; refrigerate. Just before serving, garnish with raspberries, if desired.

Tip

Step 3: If using convection oven, rotate pans one-half turn (180°) after 20 minutes of baking.
