Chocolate. Yum. I was given a Woman&Home, Pick 'n Pay recipe booklet by a friend a few weeks ago. Last weekend I decided to test out this awesome recipe for a "chocolate soufflé" type dessert since Frosty was around and we were too busy to bake brownies to send back to Cape Town with him.
Ingredients
60 g 70% dark chocolate
50 g butter or marge (guess which one I used)
2 large eggs, separated
50 g white sugar
Chocolate on top of egg yolk-sugar mix on top of whipped egg whites - ready for a final mix before going in to the mugs. |
Method
- Pre-heat over to 200 degrees C and lightly grease your moulds.
(I used my awesome striped coffee mugs without greasing them, and they were fine - I did put them in my baking tray though, to contain any spillage) - Melt the chocolate with the butter/marge and leave to cool. (I did this by putting a small pan on the stove, with some water in it that was on a medium heat. Then I got a glass bowl, put it over/into the pot and put my marge and chocolate in the glass bowl to melt it)
- Mix the egg yolks with the sugar until light and creamy. Whip the egg whites until firm.
- In another mixing bowl, combine and gently fold all the mixtures together, spoon them into your moulds (or coffee mugs) and bake them for 10 minutes.
The final product - the centre is soft and gooey and the outside is warm and cake-like! |
