Equipment

  • ramekins
  • double boiler
  • electric mixer

Ingredients
  

  • 4 oz Dark Chocolate, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons Butter, plus extra for ramekins
  • 3 Large Eggs, separated
  • 1/4 cup Granulated Sugar, divided
  • 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
  • 1/2 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon Cream of Tartar
  • 1 pinch Salt
  • Powdered Sugar for dusting

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 375°F. Generously butter four 6-oz ramekins and dust with sugar, tapping out excess. Place on a baking sheet.
  • Melt chocolate and butter together in a heatproof bowl over simmering water, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat and let cool slightly. Whisk in egg yolks, cornstarch, and vanilla until smooth.
  • In a clean bowl, beat egg whites with cream of tartar and salt until soft peaks form. Gradually add remaining sugar and beat until stiff, glossy peaks form.
  • Gently fold one-third of the egg whites into the chocolate mixture to lighten it. Then carefully fold in remaining egg whites until just combined with no white streaks visible.
  • Divide mixture evenly among prepared ramekins, filling to about 3/4 full. Run your thumb around the inside rim to create a small gap, which helps the soufflé rise evenly.
  • Bake for 12-15 minutes until soufflés have risen and tops are set but centers still jiggle slightly. Dust with powdered sugar and serve immediately.
