Perfect chocolate fondant

Hello everyone!

This week my challenge was to make a great chocolate fondant!! And guess what? I did it!

I must say that I´m really proud of myself. Even if it´s a simple recipe, to cook it perfectly is quite hard!!

As you can see I used small ramekins. The only reason is that it´s the only thing I have for the moment... So let´s begin with the recipe shall we?

First of all you need the following ingredients:

- 80-85 g of chocolate

- 50 g of unsalted butter

- 2 eggs

- 50-60 g of sugar

- 5 tablespoons of fine flour.

Use some extra butter for the ramekins and put them in the refrigerator. Then make a "bain marie" for melting the chocolate and butter. Be careful not to burn the chocolate! when it´s silky, leave it to rest for a couple of minutes while you´re preparing the rest.

Mix the eggs and sugar, and whisk them until you get a creamy texture (you should be able to draw some lines in the cream that sets for 3 seconds before falling together again).

Then swirl the chocolate and cream together until you get a nice brown smooth cream.

Add the flour little by little.

fill 3/4 of the ramekins, and put it in the oven at 200 degrees celsius for around 10 minutes.

Right before plating, use a knife to separate the fondant from the ramekins. Set the ramekins up side down to separate the fondant from the ramekins. It´s great with a sorbet or a coulis!!

And by the way, my girlfriend just loved this desert on a wednesday.
