Instructions

1
Using a hand-mixer beat egg yolks on high-speed until double in volume and become pale in color, then beat in 1/2 of the sugar.
2
Place chocolate, vanilla, cayenne, and cinnamon in a large bowl and set aside.
3
Steep 1.5 cups of cream and remaining sugar in a medium sauce pan until it begins to simmer.
4
Remove from heat and pour 1/2 cup of cream over chopped chocolate. Let it rest for a few minutes until chocolate is melted, then stir to combine. Place in fridge to chill.
5
Temper remaining 1 cup of cream into egg yolks by whisking a small amount into the egg then gradually stirring it back into cream.
6
Return to pot and cook an additional 3 to 4 minutes on low-heat stirring constantly until it thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon. DO NOT BOIL MIXTURE!
7
Once mixture begins to thicken, transfer it to the chocolate mixture and stir together. Place it in the refrigerator to cool.
8
In a clean bowl whip remaining cream and salt to stiff peaks. Carefully fold in whipped cream to the refrigerated chocolate mixture. Spoon into cups and chill for at least 2 hours before serving.
9
Garnish with diced mango or strawberries and additional whipped cream.
