For the Chocolate Fondant

Method

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Grease four ramekins with butter and dust with cocoa powder.

  2. 2

    Melt Chocolate and Butter

    In a heatproof bowl, combine the dark chocolate and unsalted butter. Melt them together over a pot of simmering water, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

  3. 3

    Mix Eggs and Sugar

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, egg yolks, and granulated sugar until the mixture becomes pale and fluffy.

  4. 4

    Combine Mixtures

    Pour the melted chocolate mixture into the egg mixture. Add the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt, and gently fold until well combined.

  5. 5

    Add Flour

    Sift in the all-purpose flour and fold gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

  6. 6

    Fill Ramekins

    Divide the batter evenly among the prepared ramekins.

  7. 7

    Bake

    Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are firm but the center is still soft.

  8. 8

    Serve

    Let the fondants sit for 1 minute, then carefully invert them onto plates. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
