Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/4 cup sugar plus additional for coating ramekins
8 ounces fine-quality bittersweet chocolate (not unsweetened)
3/4 stick (6 tablespoons) unsalted butter
2 tablespoons heavy cream
4 large egg yolks
7 large egg whites
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
Accompaniment: creamy caramel sauce

Steps:

  • Butter six 1-cup ramekins (4 by 2 inches) and coat with sugar, knocking out excess sugar.
  • Finely chop chocolate. In a small saucepan melt butter over low heat. Add cream and bring just to a boil. Remove pan from heat and add chocolate, stirring until smooth. Transfer mixture to a large bowl and stir in yolks.
  • In another large bowl with an electric mixer beat whites with cream of tartar and a pinch salt until they just hold stiff peaks. Gradually add 1/4 cup sugar, beating until just combined. Stir one fourth whites into chocolate mixture to lighten and fold in remaining whites gently but thoroughly.
  • Divide soufflé mixture among ramekins and smooth tops with a knife. Run tip of knife around edges of soufflés to aid rising. Soufflés may be made up to this point 1 day ahead and chilled, loosely wrapped in plastic wrap.
  • Preheat oven to 375°F.
  • Bake soufflés on a baking sheet in lower third of oven until puffed and surfaces are cracked, about 20 minutes.
  • Top soufflés with sauce and serve immediately.

I had trouble getting the souffles out of the ramekins without breaking them. I think I should have greased the ramekins more thoroughly.

The souffles didn't rise as much as I expected. I think I might have overmixed the batter.

I thought the souffles were a bit too sweet for my taste. I would suggest using less sugar in the recipe.

These souffles are so rich and decadent. I would recommend serving them with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of ice cream.

I'm not a huge fan of chocolate, but I loved these souffles. They were so light and airy, and the caramel sauce was the perfect balance of sweet and salty.
