Ingredients
- 200 grams Dark chocolate (70% cocoa solids)
- 100 grams Unsalted butter
- 150 grams Granulated sugar
- 3 large Eggs
- 3 large Egg yolks
- 50 grams Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- None as needed Cocoa powder (for dusting)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F) and generously butter six ramekins. Dust each ramekin with cocoa powder to prevent sticking.
Step 2
In a heatproof bowl, melt the dark chocolate and butter together over a pan of simmering water (bain-marie). Stir occasionally until smooth, then remove from the heat and let it cool slightly.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, eggs, and egg yolks until pale and thick. This will take about 3-4 minutes using an electric whisk.
Step 4
Gently fold the melted chocolate and butter mixture into the egg and sugar mixture, ensuring it is thoroughly combined.
Step 5
Sift the gluten-free flour into the chocolate mixture, folding gently with a spatula to combine. Mix until just incorporated; avoid over-mixing.
Step 6
Divide the batter evenly between the prepared ramekins and place them on a baking tray.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 9-10 minutes. The fondants should be firm on the outside and slightly wobbly in the middle.
Step 8
Remove from the oven and let them sit for 1 minute. Carefully invert each ramekin onto a serving plate and remove the ramekin gently.
Step 9
Serve immediately, ideally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dusting of powdered sugar on top.
