This elegant dessert is both light and decadently chocolaty. Best of all, you can really make it at home. We’re making a Chocolate Soufflé!
This recipe is a must for any chocolate lover.
It’s elegant enough to serve at any dinner party and light enough to want to have a second helping.
And the creamy chocolate taste is just plain decadent.
Let’s make Chocolate Soufflé!
Preheat your oven to 375°.
Butter the inside of your soufflé molds ( we used 3 1/2 Inch or 9 cm Ramekins).
Dust the molds with granulated sugar, then pour out the excess.
Place 3 tablespoons milk and 1 tablespoon cream in a small saucepan and stir over medium heat until it boils.
Remove from heat and add 2 ounces of dark chocolate. Let sit for 1 minute then stir until well combined and all of the chocolate has melted.
Add 1/4 cups unsweetened cocoa powder and 3 tablespoons water. Whisk until very hot over double boiler.
Remove from the heat and set aside to cool for few minutes.
Meanwhile whip 3 egg whites with 1/4 teaspoon salt until foamy. Gradually add 5 tablespoons sugar and beat until stiff peaks form.
Add 3 egg yolks to chocolate mixture and whisk in to combine.
Using a rubber spatula gently mix one-third of the egg whites into chocolate mixture. Then fold the chocolate mixture into the remaining whites.
Spoon batter into prepared molds.
Bake for about 13-15 minutes, until the soufflé has risen to about 1 and 1/2 inches above the dish.

Meanwhile whip 7 ounces whipping cream with 1 tablespoon powdered sugar if used for serving.
Remove from the oven and dust the top with powdered sugar and add a spoon of whipped cream.
Youl’ll want to serve immediately as the soufflé will begin to deflate after in 2 minutes.
Eat and enjoy!
