 In a small nonmetal bowl stir together light cream, chopped chocolate,

 or till chocolate is melted, stirring every 30 seconds.  Stir about HALF
 of the hot mixture into the beaten egg yolks.  Return all to the bowl,
 mixing well.  Micro-cook, uncovered, on 50% power for 2 to 3 minutes or
 till thickened, stirring every 30 seconds.  Stir in vanilla.  Pour into 2
 pot de creme cups or 6-ounce custard cups.  Cover and chill for several
 hours or till firm.  Garnish with whipped cream, if desired.

 NOTE:
 -----

 SELECTING THE RIGHT CHOCOLATE:  You'll find three basic types of chocolate
 in the baking supplies department of most supermarkets--semisweet
 chocolate, unsweetened chocolate, and sweet chocolate.  The semisweet
 chocolate is made from chocolate that is just slightly sweetened with
 sugar.  Unsweetened chocolate is the original baking or cooking chocolate
 and has no added flavorings or sugar.  And sweet chocolate, such as the
 German cooking chocolate used in the Chocolate Pots de Creme recipe, is
 chocolate mixed with sugar and sometimes additional cocoa butter or
 flavorings.
