Preparation
- Step 1
Mix the espresso with the ground cardamom and 2 tablespoons of the sugar. When the sugar has dissolved, strain the mixture through a fine seive and set it aside to cool to room temperature.
- Step 2
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Brush four 8-ounce ceramic ramekins with half the melted butter and dust them with 2 tablespoons of the sugar.
- Step 3
Beat the egg yolks with ⅓ cup of the sugar in the top of a double boiler over simmering water until they lighten and thicken. Remove from heat, transfer to a large bowl and continue beating until cooled to room temperature, 3 to 5 minutes. Set aside.
- Step 4
Beat the remaining melted butter into the espresso mixture. Divide this mixture among the 4 ramekins.
- Step 5
Beat the egg whites with the remaining sugar until stiff but not dry. Fold this mixture into the egg yolk mixture and divide it among the 4 ramekins.
- Step 6
Place the souffles in the oven and bake 6 minutes, until the tops are golden and firm to the touch. Remove from the oven, dust with confectioners' sugar and coffee, and serve.
