If you love chocolate then this is the dessert that you definitely need to try let me show you how to make this delicious chocolate fondant we need to start by preparing the mols to do that we need to generously grease them with some butter and then Dust them with cocoa powder
Making sure to shake off any of the excess cocoa powder from inside place the molds onto a baking tray and put them in the fridge to chill next place a small saucepan onto a medium heat with a little bit of water in the bottom and bring it to a boil
Once the water simmering place a heat proof Bowl on top of the pan and add in 250 g of unsalted butter and then break in 250 g of good quality dark chocolate with at least 70% cocoa solids make sure the bowl is not touching the water stir the butter and chocolate together until
It’s completely melted and add in a pinch of salt break five whole eggs into a mixing bowl and then separate another five eggs keep your egg whites for a future recipe and we’re going to use the egg yolks for this recipe place them into the mixing
Bowl as well along with 250 g of castor sugar whisk them together until they’re light and fluffy I’m using a stand mixer to do this but you could also use a small handheld electric whisk or if you’re feeling brave you can do it by hand may take a while but it is good
Exercise size now we need to fold the chocolate mixture into the egg mixture so do this nice and gently trying to keep as much air in the mix as possible now sift in the flour and gently fold that in as well fill your prepared molds 2/3 full
With the mixture and place into a preheated oven at 180° C fan for 8 to 10 minutes take from the oven and leave to sit for a further one to two minutes before taking them out of the molds to remove from the molds gently run a knife
Just Around The Edge at the top and then you can turn it out onto a plate I like to dust mine with ice and sugar and serve it with a little bit of cream but it goes great with ice cream or custard as well I don’t think there’s
