Ingredients
- ½ cup (120 g ) white granulated sugar
- 4 eggs
- ¾ cup (150 g) unsalted butter
- ¾ cup (150 g) chocolate (suitable for melting)
Directions
Melt the chocolate and butter in a bowl set above another pan of simmering water (or use a double boiler ).
Lightly whisk chocolate mix until smooth, then remove from heat and allow to cool, whilst still stirring.
Beat eggs and sugar in a bowl until the mixture is creamy.
Gradually mix in the melted chocolate along with any other variants (see below).
Pour mixture into mould (baking tray or 8 individual moulds).
Cover moulds with aluminium foil and place the moulds in a deeper baking tray.
Pour boiling water into the deep baking tray at a depth that is half that of the moulds.
Bake for approximately 30 minutes in a preheated oven at gas mark 2 (300°F or 150°C). Insert a skewer to check if ready: if skewer comes out clean, then it is ready.
Remove from oven and allow to cool at room temperature.
Cool for approximately 10 hours in a fridge.
Remove from mould, place on a plate and garnish.
