Pots de Creme

According to the Pioneer Woman, first of all, here’s how you do NOT pronounce Pots de Creme: “Pawts deh Creem.”

Here’s how you DO pronounce Pots de Creme: “Po de Krehm”, or, if you want to get really technical, “Po de k(insert phlegmy, back-of-the-throat crackly French sound)ehm”.

Short of sticking a spoon in a pint of Haagen Dazs and throwing it at her dinner guests, this is definitely the easiest dessert in her arsenal. Now, it does need to chill for 3 to 4 hours before serving, so it does require a tiny bit of planning. But the preparation couldn’t be easier, 5 minutes, tops - and oh so good!

We got creative with our Pots de Creme and used mint chocolate chips, which was good - but keep in mind that there is coffee in the recipe, so if using something like butterscotch chips you might want to substitute hot milk.
