1
Prepare the Chocolate
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease 4 ramekins with butter and dust with granulated sugar. Place the ramekins on a baking tray.
2
Melt Chocolate
In a heatproof bowl, melt the bittersweet chocolate and 30g of butter over a double boiler until smooth. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
3
Combine Egg Yolks and Sugar
In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks with 100g of granulated sugar until pale and fluffy.
4
Mix Ingredients
Combine the melted chocolate with the egg yolk mixture until well combined.
5
Whip Egg Whites
In a clean bowl, whip the egg whites with cream of tartar until soft peaks form. Gradually add the powdered sugar and continue to whip until stiff peaks form.
6
Fold Mixtures Together
Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the chocolate mixture in three additions, being careful not to deflate the egg whites.
7
Bake Soufflés
Spoon the mixture into the prepared ramekins and smooth the tops. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, until puffed and set.
8
Serve
Remove from the oven and serve immediately with vanilla ice cream and 5 spice anglaise.
