chocolate stand until softened and whisk mixture until
smooth.
In a bowl whisk together yolks, whole egg, & granulated

comes to a boil.Add milk mixture to egg mixture in a

Divide custard among eight 1/2-cup flameproof ramekins
(measuring 3 1/4" in diameter across the top) set in
a roasting pan and add enough hot water to pan to reach

Set broiler rack so that custards will be 2" to 3" from
heat and preheat broiler. Sift brown sugar evenly

and caramelized, about 2 minutes. (Alternatively, raw
sugar may be sprinkled over custards and caramelized
with a blowtorch.) Chill custards 20 minutes.
