Ingredients:
• 100 g – dark chocolate
• 100 g – Butter
• 2 – eggs
• 2 Egg yolks
• 120 g – Sugar
• 100 g – plain flour
• 3 tsp – cocoa powder
• A little additional Butter (for greasing moulds)
• For sauce:
• 250 g – Raspberries (or strawberries), frozen
• 80 g – Sugar (or more, if you like it sweeter)
• 6 scoops – vanilla ice Cream
Method:
- Preheat oven to 275 degrees C. Grease moulds with additional butter. Melt butter and chocolate in a bowl, sitting in hot, but not boiling water.
- In a separate bowl, mix cocoa powder and flour until well combined and lump free.
- In another clean bowl, beat eggs and yolks with the sugar until light and foamy.
- Carefully fold in the melted butter/chocolate and then the cocoa/flour mixtures. Try not to over mix, as this will release the air we just beat into the eggs/sugar. Pour mixture into the greased moulds (3/4 full only, as mixture will rise during baking) and bake for approximately 10-12 minutes.
- Fondants should not be fully cooked, they should still be considerably liquid and soft in the centre. Remove and let cool slightly.
- For the sauce:
- Let the raspberries defrost together with the sugar.
- Blend in electric mixture till well pureed.
- Strain mixture with fine mesh to remove the seeds. (You can keep them in, if you like).
- Remove chocolate fondants from the moulds, set on plate and serve with the raspberry sauce and vanilla ice cream.
