Instructions

PREHEAT THE OVEN (210°C CONVENTIONAL (TOP/BOTTOM HEAT))

  1. 1.
    Roughly chop the chocolate and melt it together with the butter in a saucepan over low heat, stirring until combined (don't let it get too hot!).
  2. 2.
    Beat the eggs with the sugar until fluffy and add a few drops of bitter almond oil (if you don't like this "marzipan flavor", simply leave it out).
  3. 3.
    Then add the flour and mix well.
  4. 4.
    Next, stir in the chocolate-butter mixture.
  5. 5.
    Grease the muffin tins well. The standard recipe makes approx. 9 small soufflés.
  6. 6.
    Fill the tins with batter (about 3/4 full) and bake in the preheated oven for 10 min. Tip: No longer than 10 min., otherwise the center won't stay molten!
  7. 7.
    Finally, carefully turn them out onto plates, dust with powdered sugar and serve immediately with a lovely scoop of vanilla ice cream and whipped cream.
