Equipment

Ingredients
- 1 and ½ cup dark chocolate, unsweetened 200g
- A little over ⅓ cup butter 75g

- ½ cup sugar, granulated 100g
Instructions
- Melt the chocolate and the butter bain-marie (hot water bath).
- In the meantime, beat the 6 egg whites. When it starts foaming, add the sugar gradually. (I use my Kitchenaid so I have my hands free to deal with the chocolate).
- Once the chocolate/butter mixture is melted, remove from the heat and add the egg yolks (3). Mix well.
- Once your egg whites are stiff and firm, incorporate the chocolate by folding carefully with a spatula.
- Pour in ramekins or any other dish of your choice and reserve in the fridge for an hour.
- Enjoy!
