 --------  ------------  --------------------------------
    5      large         Egg yolks
      1/2  cup           Sugar
    2      cups          Whipping cream
    3      ounces        White imported chocolate -- finely chopped
      1/4  teaspoon      Vanilla extract
    2      tablespoons   sugar
 
 Position rack in center of oven and preheat to 300F. Whisk egg yolks and 1/4
 cup sugar in medium bowl. Bring cream and remaining 1/4 cup sugar to simmer in
 heavy medium saucepan. Reduce heat to low. Gradually add chopped
 chocolate to cream mixture and whisk until smooth. Gradually whisk hot
 chocolate mixture into yolk mixture. Mix in vanilla. Ladle custard into four
 10-ounce custard cups (or creme brulee cups).  Place cups in large baking pan.
 Add enough hot water to pan to come halfway up sides of cups.  Bake until
 custards are set in center, about 1 hour. Remove custards from water and cool.
 Cover and refrigerate overnight. Preheat broiler.  Sprinkle 1/2 tablespoon
 sugar over each custard. Broil until sugar caramelizes, watching carefully,
 about 2 minutes. Serve hot, or refrigerate up to 1 hour and serve cold.
