How to Make a Perfect Chocolate Soufflé at Home

Religious-right
Translated & summarized from Srugim by baba
The story · English

For a quick sweet breakfast or dessert, this chocolate soufflé is presented as an impressive but simple dish that can be ready in under half an hour. The recipe makes 4 individual soufflés with a molten center and is meant to feel like something from a café, but without complicated steps.

The ingredients are 100 grams of dark chocolate, 100 grams of butter, 2 eggs, 2 egg yolks, 1/4 cup of sugar, 2 tablespoons of flour, and a pinch of salt. You also need butter and cocoa powder to grease the ramekins.

To prepare, preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius. Grease 4 individual baking dishes and coat them lightly with cocoa. Melt the chocolate and butter together, either in the microwave or over a bain-marie. In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, yolks, and sugar until the mixture turns pale, then fold in the chocolate mixture.

Add the flour and salt, stir until just combined, divide the batter among the dishes, and bake for 10 to 12 minutes. The edges should set while the center stays soft. Serve immediately with powdered sugar, vanilla ice cream, or fresh fruit.
