Aren't they adorable? I stumbled across these ramekins at World Market, when I was taking my grand ole' time roaming up and down every single isle making sure I didn't miss a thing! Yes if you can't tell I am a big fan of the store. I have even debated quitting my current job so I could work there and play house all day. Hey a girl can dream right?
OK let's get started...
Chocolate Souffles
Ingredients:
1/3 cup granulated sugar. Plus 2Tbs for dusting
5oz. bittersweet chocolate
3 egg yolks, room temp.
6 egg whites, room temp
butter
powdered sugar
First preheat your oven to 375. Butter the ramekins and sprinkle with sugar. Then get your eggs out and separated so they can come to room temp.
Next melt your chocolate.
Remove your the chocolate from the heat and stir in the egg yolks.
Then beat the egg whites until soft glossy peaks form.
Gradually add in the 1/3 cup of sugar and mix until stiff peaks form.
Add 1/3 of the egg whites into the chocolate mixture. Mix in the rest until it is all combined.
Spoon into your ramekins and bake for 12-15 mins.
YAY! it worked :)
Seeing as this was my first time making these, does anyone know if they are supposed to stay puffed up or do they fall a little? Mine did fall but I think they were still a success. Very airy and delicious!
I hope you enjoyed the debut of my cute little ramekins. I will have to find more recipes to use these suckers for.
