This Easy Blood Orange Chocolate Pots de Creme is a decadent, no-bake dessert featuring rich bittersweet chocolate infused with bright, citrusy blood orange syrup and smooth coffee. It’s a simple, elegant treat perfect for impressing guests or indulging on a special night in, requiring just a blender and some chilling time.

  • Total Time: 3 hours 15 minutes
  • Yield: 8 servings

Ingredients

Chocolate Mixture

  • 12 oz bittersweet chocolate chips
  • 4 whole large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 3 tablespoons Torani Blood Orange syrup

Liquid

  • 6 oz hot coffee (decaf recommended if serving in evening)

Instructions

  1. Combine ingredients: Add the bittersweet chocolate chips, whole eggs, blood orange syrup, and a pinch of salt into a blender. Pulse 5 times to slightly break up the chocolate chips, preparing them to melt evenly.
  2. Blend with coffee: Turn the blender on to blend mode and slowly pour in the hot coffee. This will gently melt the chocolate as you blend, creating a smooth, velvety mixture. Continue blending until fully smooth and well combined.
  3. Pour and chill: Pour the chocolate mixture evenly into small cups or pots to make 8 servings. Cover the cups and refrigerate for at least 3 hours or overnight to allow the pots de creme to set and chill thoroughly.
  4. Serve chilled: Once fully chilled and set, serve the pots de creme cold for a rich and refreshing dessert experience.

Notes

  • Use room temperature eggs to ensure smooth blending and proper incorporation.
  • For a less intense coffee flavor, use decaffeinated coffee, especially if serving in the evening.
  • You can substitute Torani Blood Orange syrup with fresh blood orange zest and juice for a more natural flavor.
  • For a dairy-free version, ensure the chocolate chips used are vegan-friendly and substitute coffee with a milk alternative brewed hot.
  • Covering the pots while chilling prevents them from absorbing fridge odors and forming a skin on top.
