Instructions
Before starting, gather all required baking tools. Wash and dry all produce. Zest orange. Cut a piece off the top and bottom ends of orange. Place a flat end on a cutting board, cut the peel away from the flesh from top to bottom, turning orange as you go. When peeled completely, slip a paring knife along each side of the “membranes” (the white lines) of each orange slice to release the segments into a small bowl. Squeeze half the orange segments into another small bowl to release juice. Whisk together egg and 1/4 cup orange juice in another small bowl until smooth.
Add chocolate chips, honey, cream and half the orange zest to a medium pot. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring often, until chocolate is melted and smooth, 3-7 min. Whisk in egg mixture until combined. Increase heat to medium and cook, stirring constantly, until mixture just begins to bubble, 4-5 min. Immediately remove from heat, then stir in 1/8 tsp salt. Pour chocolate mixture through a fine mesh strainer into a medium bowl. (TIP: This will ensure the chocolate mixture stays silky smooth!)
Divide chocolate mixture evenly between 4 small bowls or cups. Place in the fridge to set for 2-4 hrs. When ready to serve, remove pots de crème from the fridge. Top with remaining orange segments and remaining orange zest.
