Roys Chocolate Souffle Recipes

CHEF JOHN'S CHOCOLATE SOUFFLE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Brush bottom and sides of 2 (5-ounce) ramekins lightly with 1 teaspoon melted butter; cover bottom and sides right up to the rim. Add 1 tablespoon white sugar to ramekins. Rotate ramekins until sugar coats all surfaces. Pour off extra sugar.
• Place chocolate pieces in a metal mixing bowl. Place bowl over a pan of about 3 cups hot water over low heat. Do not let water boil or come to a simmer.
• Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a skillet over medium heat. Sprinkle in flour. Whisk until flour is incorporated into butter and mixture thickens, about 1 minute. Reduce heat to low. Whisk in cold milk until mixture becomes smooth and thickens, 2 or 3 minutes. Remove skillet from heat. Transfer mixture to bowl with melted chocolate. Add salt and very small pinch of cayenne pepper. Mix together thoroughly. Add egg yolk and mix to combine. Leave bowl above the hot (not simmering) water to keep chocolate warm while you whip the egg whites.
• Place 2 egg whites in a mixing bowl; add cream of tartar. Whisk until mixture begins to thicken and a drizzle from the whisk stays on the surface about 1 second before disappearing into the mix, 2 or 3 minutes. Add 1/3 of sugar and whisk in. Whisk in a bit more sugar about 15 seconds; whisk in the rest of the sugar. Continue whisking until mixture is about as thick as shaving cream and holds soft peaks, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Transfer a little less than half of egg whites to chocolate. Mix until egg whites are thoroughly incorporated into the chocolate, 1 or 2 minutes. Add the rest of the egg whites; gently fold into the chocolate with a spatula, lifting from the bottom and folding over. Stop mixing after the egg white disappears. Divide mixture between 2 prepared ramekins. Place ramekins on prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in preheated oven until scuffles are puffed and have risen above the top of the rims, 12 to 15 minutes.

ROY'S CHOCOLATE SOUFFLE (MOLTEN LAVA CAKE)

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°. Grease each soufflé ring or ramekin (3 inches in diameter x 2 inches tall) with butter and then dust with cocoa. You will need 4 to 6 ramekins depending on how big yours are.
• To make the soufflé batter, microwave chocolate and butter in the microwave in 30 second intervals stirring in between until melted and smooth. Set aside.
• Combine sugar and cornstarch in a mixing bowl. Add in the chocolate/butter mixture and mix until combined. In a small bowl, whisk the eggs. Add eggs to chocolate mixture and mix at low speed until mixture is smooth and sugar dissolved. Chill in fridge until ready to be used. This can be kept in the fridge for up to 10 days.
• Fill each ring mold or ramekin with batter ¾ of the way full. Bake on top oven rack for 15-25 minutes; the time will depend on your oven and size of ramekins. You just want to make sure the tops are set but the middle is still gooey. Since every oven is different, it might be smart to test one. Remove baking sheet from oven. Use a knife to and run it around the edge then carefully invert and place on a serving dish. Sprinkle with powdered sugar if desired. Serve immediately. You can serve it with a scoop of ice cream, whipped cream, or by itself.
