BETH’S FOOLPROOF CHOCOLATE SOUFFLE RECIPE
Makes 2 Soufflés
INGREDIENTS:
1 tbsp (15 g) butter, melted
4 tsp (20 ml) sugar
For Base:
1 egg yolk
2 oz (56 g) bittersweet chocolate
3 tbsp (45 ml) butter
½ tsp (2.5 ml) vanilla extract
Large pinch of salt
NOTE: Make the base ahead. If using in less than an hour, leave on counter. If it will be more time, pop in fridge. When sitting down to dinner, remove and allow to come to room temp.
For Meringue:
2 egg whites
1/4 cup (50 g) sugar
½ tsp (2.5 ml) cream of tartar or 1 tsp (5 ml) white vinegar
For Whipped Cream:
1 cup (240 ml) heavy cream
1 tsp (5 ml) vanilla extract
1 tbsp (7 g) powdered sugar (icing sugar or confectioner’s sugar)
Special Equipment:
1 cup (240 ml) oven-safe ramekins
METHOD:
TIP#1: Use a 1 cup (240 ml) ramekin. Really the best size for assuring success.
To plan ahead brush each ramekin with the melted butter.
TIP#2 Don’t skip the sugar coating. Coating each ramekin with the sugar, allows the egg mixture something to cling to as it rises up in the oven. It also gives a nice crunchy sweetness to the souffle after it’s baked. Then place the 2 tsp of sugar in each ramekin, covering all sides. Pop in the fridge.
TIP#3 I hour before you plan to serve. Make the soufle base ahead of time. Melt chocolate and butter in a microwavable bowl until melted. Whisk to combine. Then add 1 egg yolk, vanilla and salt. Whisk until combined. Keep on counter at room temperature. If you need to make it more than 1 hour ahead, do so but pop in the fridge until ready to bake.
TIP#4: Right before you sit down to dinner do these 3 things:
1.) remove the base from the fridge rest on counter to allow it to come up to room temperature if you’ve refrigerated it.
2.) Place egg whites in a bowl so they come to room temperature and will be ready to be whipped.
3.) Measure out your sugar and have cream of tartar ready (or vinegar)
After dinner is over, preheat oven to 400F (200C).
TIP#5: Position oven rack on the lowest rung position. This will allow for your soufflés to bake a bit longer and rise up more, while making sure the tops don’t burn in such a hot oven.
While the oven preheats, begin to whip the whites. Once foamy add cream of tartar. Once opaque slowly add the sugar while the whites whip to stiff peaks and glossy.
Then place one dollop of whites into the base and fold to lighten the base. Then fold the rest of the whites in thirds, folding the whites being careful not to over mix and deflate your whites.
Remove ramekins from the fridge and using a large spoon dollop the mixture into each ramekin filling all the way to the top. Smooth off with a spatula so you have a flat consistent top.
TIP# 6: Run your thumb along inside of the ramekin, all the way around, creating a little channel around the soufflé. This will allow your soufflés to rise higher in the final baking stages and prevent tops from cracking. Then clean the edges off with a dish towel.
Place soufflés on a cookie sheet and pop in the oven. Bake for just 13-14 mins until soufflés have risen and tops are slightly browned.
Meanwhile while soufflés bake, whip together heavy cream, vanilla and sugar until soft peaks form and cream is still pourable. Transfer to a serving bowl.
When soufflés are done remove from oven, dust with powder sugar and serve immediately.
Poke holes in the center of the soufflé with a spoon and serve a dollop of whipped cream inside.

How about gas ovens – the heat is underneath. Where should I put my souffles?

When I made the chocolate base after a few minutes it started to harden, I tried whisking it hard before I added the egg white mixture but it wouldn't mix in because the chocolate base was not liquidy at all. Any thoughts anyone?

hi do you have to use bitter sweet chocolate? Can you use semi sweet? And also do you have to use cream of tartar or the vinegar for the meringue? Can you just use the egg whites and sugar? Thanks

Will it still taste good without the whipped cream? I'm not a fan of whipped cream but really want to try the chocolate soufflé :(

Hey Beth! I just made these beautiful soufflés, but with dark chocolate, and they tasted amazing! It was my first time making these and without your recipe, I would have never known that it's actually so easy. Can't wait to make them again and share it with my family 🙂 xx

Thank you so much for the recipe ! I've been wanting to make chocolate souffle for the longest of time and finally found your recipe and tried it ! It rose beautifully I was so proud :') ,,, BUT the consistency of the inside of the souffle was foamy .. which I did not enjoy.. I was extremely disappointed ..I don't know if chocolate souffles are supposed to be like that.. maybe i was expecting it to be more like a molten lava cake?.. or maybe i did something wrong ?

Dear Beth, Please make a video about cheese souffle 🙂 I have seen recipes of others but none of them give me so much confidence as you.

Great video – but I advise against melting the butter, to coat the cups.

Beth, I have recently stumbled upon your channel and since them I can not stop browsing through your recipes! I have started with the souffle and it was a superb treat… even though it was not Valentine's Day!:)
I think you are doing a great job and you have a lovely way of explaining these scrumptious recipes!
