• Butter to grease
• 75 gram(s) plain chocolate
• 225 ml fresh chocolate custard
• 3 medium egg whites
• 25 gram(s) caster sugar
• Icing sugar, to dust

Method

1. Preheat oven to 220°C (200°C fan) mark 7. Put a baking sheet on the middle shelf to heat up, making sure there's enough space for the soufflés to rise. Grease six 125ml (4fl oz) ramekins.
2. Finely grate chocolate, or whiz until it resembles breadcrumbs. Dust insides of ramekins with 25g (1oz) of the chocolate.
3. In a large bowl, mix custard and remaining chocolate. In a separate bowl, whisk egg whites until stiff but not dry. Gradually add caster sugar to egg whites, whisking well after each addition. Using a metal spoon, fold egg whites into the custard mixture.
4. Quickly divide mixture among ramekins, put them on to the preheated baking sheet and bake for 10-12min until well risen. Dust the soufflés with icing sugar and serve at once.
