Double-Chocolate Soufflés

These Double-Chocolate Soufflés are light, airy, and bursting with rich chocolate flavor. Perfect for an elegant dessert, they’re surprisingly easy to prepare and deliver impressive results every time.

Ingredients (Serves 4):

For the soufflés:

  • 3 oz (85g) dark chocolate (70% cocoa), finely chopped
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter, plus extra for greasing
  • 2 large eggs, separated
  • 1 large egg white
  • 3 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1/4 tsp cream of tartar (optional, for stability)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tbsp all-purpose flour

For serving:

  • Powdered sugar for dusting
  • Optional: whipped cream or a drizzle of chocolate sauce

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Ramekins:

    • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
    • Grease 4 ramekins (6 oz each) with butter and lightly dust with sugar. Tap out the excess sugar.

  2. Melt the Chocolate:

    • Combine the chopped chocolate and butter in a heatproof bowl.
    • Melt over a double boiler or in the microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring until smooth. Set aside to cool slightly.

  3. Prepare the Egg Yolks:

    • In a small bowl, whisk the egg yolks and vanilla extract. Stir the mixture into the melted chocolate until fully incorporated.

  4. Whip the Egg Whites:

    • In a clean mixing bowl, beat the egg whites and cream of tartar (if using) with an electric mixer until soft peaks form.
    • Gradually add the sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, and continue beating until glossy and stiff peaks form.

  5. Combine the Mixtures:

    • Gently fold one-third of the whipped egg whites into the chocolate mixture to lighten it.
    • Carefully fold in the remaining egg whites in two additions, being gentle to maintain the airy texture.

  6. Fill the Ramekins:

    • Divide the batter evenly among the prepared ramekins, filling them almost to the top.
    • Run your thumb around the rim of each ramekin to help the soufflés rise evenly.

  7. Bake:

    • Place the ramekins on a baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the soufflés have risen and the tops are set.

  8. Serve Immediately:

    • Dust with powdered sugar and serve immediately with whipped cream or chocolate sauce, if desired.

Tips for Perfect Soufflés:

  • Room Temperature Eggs: Room temperature eggs whip better and create more volume.
  • Avoid Overmixing: Fold gently to keep the batter light and airy.
  • Timing Is Key: Serve soufflés straight from the oven as they will begin to deflate after a few minutes.
