 --------  ------------  --------------------------------
    1      pint          light cream
      1/2  cup           granulated sugar
    4                    egg yolks
    1      whole         egg
    1      drop          vanilla extract
    1      pinch         salt
    2 1/2  ounces        bitter chocolate
                         whipped cream
 
 Preheat oven to 225 degrees.  Heat cream until hot but not boiling.  Add half
 the sugar and stir until sugar has dissolved.  In separate saucepan, beat
 yolks and whole egg.  Add remaining sugar, vanilla and salt.  Slowly pour
 heated cream into the eggs, stirring constantly.  Melt chocolate in a heavy
 saucepan over a low flame.  Remove from heat and very slowly add half the
 cream and egg mixture, stirring constantly.  Add remainder of mixture and stir
 until well mixed.  Strain through a fine sieve.  Pour into individual ceramic
 or glass serving dishes and place them in a shallow pan of hot water.  Bake in
 preheated oven for 20 minutes.  Chill.  Top with whipped cream if desired.
