How to Make Never Fail Chocolate Souffles

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease and sugar six 6-ounce ramekins.
  2. Melt the chocolate and butter together in a double boiler or microwave until smooth. Set aside to cool slightly.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and sugar until pale and thick. Gradually whisk in the cooled chocolate mixture until fully combined.
  4. In a clean bowl, beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt until stiff peaks form.
  5. Gently fold one-third of the egg whites into the chocolate mixture to lighten it. Then, gently fold in the remaining egg whites in two additions, being careful not to deflate the mixture.
  6. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared ramekins.
  7. Place the ramekins in a larger baking pan. Pour enough hot water into the pan to come halfway up the sides of the ramekins (this creates a bain-marie for even cooking).
  8. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the souffles are puffed and set around the edges but still slightly jiggly in the center.
  9. Let the souffles cool for a few minutes before carefully running a knife around the edges to release them. Serve immediately and enjoy!
  10. Dust with powdered sugar for an elegant touch (optional).
