Preparation
- Step 1
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
- Step 2
Butter a one-quart souffle dish or four eight-ounce souffle dishes.
- Step 3
Melt the chocolate in a double boiler and add the sugar and vanilla. Allow the mixture to cool.
- Step 4
Whisk the egg yolks until they are pale yellow. Gradually stir them into the warm (but not hot) chocolate. The recipe can be prepared ahead to this point.
- Step 5
Beat the egg whites until they stand up in glossy peaks. Stir one-third of the egg whites into the chocolate mixture, then gradually fold in the rest.
- Step 6
Bake souffle in center of oven for about 25 minutes for a large souffle, about 10 minutes for smaller ones. Remove from oven, dust with confectioners' sugar and serve. Pass whipped cream separately.
