Time 1h5m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup bittersweet chocolate chips
1/4 cup butter, plus for buttering ramekins
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
3 eggs, separated
1/4 cup sugar, plus for dusting ramekins
1/2 cup milk, room temp
Powdered sugar, for garnish
Grated orange zest, for garnish

Steps:

  • Special equipment: six 6-ounce ramekins
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter the ramekins and then dust with sugar. Place the ramekins in a 9-by-13-inch baking dish.
  • Place the chocolate chips and the butter in the top of a double boiler set over simmering water. Heat until melted, stirring occasionally so that the chocolate chips and butter are well blended and have a smooth, silky texture.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the cocoa powder, flour and salt. Mix together with a fork.
  • Using a hand-held mixer or a whisk, beat the egg whites in a large bowl until stiff peaks form.
  • In a medium bowl, beat the egg yolks and sugar with a hand-held mixer or a whisk until the mixture turns pale yellow, about 2 minutes. Slowly temper the melted chocolate into the egg yolks and mix until well combined. Mix in the milk. Add the dry ingredients and blend until fully incorporated. With a rubber spatula, fold in the egg whites in three separate additions.
  • Fill the prepared ramekins with batter two-thirds of the way up. Pour hot water into the baking dish two-thirds of the way up the sides of the ramekins. Cover the baking dish tightly with aluminum foil. Place in the oven and bake until the cakes are set, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Carefully remove the ramekins from the baking dish and set aside to cool for about 30 minutes. Unmold the cakes onto individual plates. If the cakes are not releasing from the ramekins, run a small knife or offset metal spatula along the inside of the ramekins. Garnish each cake with a dusting of powdered sugar and a sprinkling of orange zest.

Time 1h

Yield Four servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature, plus additional for coating ramekins
3 tablespoons sugar, plus additional for coating ramekins
2 ounces semisweet chocolate, melted
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 eggs, separated

1/2 cup ground almonds or walnuts
1/4 cup bread crumbs
1/2 cup heavy cream, whipped, for serving
5 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
4 ounces milk chocolate, chopped
1 cup heavy cream

Steps:

  • To make the puddings, butter 4 4-ounce ramekins and coat with sugar. Set aside. Cream the butter and sugar with an electric mixer until light. Stir in the melted chocolate and the vanilla. Beat in the egg yolks one at a time.
  • Whip the egg whites with the salt until stiff but not dry. Carefully fold the ground nuts and the bread crumbs into the egg whites. Gently fold the egg white mixture into the chocolate mixture.
  • Fill a large pot with enough water to come halfway up the sides of the ramekins. Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat so that the water is at a slow simmer.

  • To make the sauce, place the chocolates in a large mixing bowl. Bring the cream to a boil in a medium saucepan and pour over the chocolate. Stir until smooth. Unmold the puddings and place each one in the center of a plate.
