Mr. Whipstir’s Famous Chocolate Souffle
Ingredients
• 7 ounces finely chopped bittersweet or semisweet chocolate
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus for preparing the molds
• 1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
• 3 large egg yolks
• 3 tablespoons warm water
• 1/2 cup sugar, plus 2 tablespoons
• 8 large egg whites, room temperature
• 1/2 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
• Confectioners’ sugar for garnish
Directions
1. Brush 6 (6-ounce) ramekins with soft butter, then coat with sugar. Put the prepared ramekins in the freezer. (This can be done a day ahead.)
2. Set an oven rack in lower third of the oven and preheat to 400 degrees F.
3. Combine chocolate and butter in a medium heatproof bowl. Bring a saucepan filled with an inch or so of water to a very slow simmer; set the bowl over the water making sure that the bowl does not touch the water’s surface. Stir the chocolate occasionally until melted and smooth. Remove from heat, stir in vanilla extract and set aside.
4. In a mixing bowl combine the egg yolks and warm water and beat until frothy. Gradually add 2 tablespoons sugar, and continue beating until ribbons form, about 5 minutes. Very lightly fold the yolks into the chocolate mixture.
5. Remove prepared ramekins from freezer. Put the egg whites in a clean mixing bowl and add the lemon juice. Using your Mr. Whipstir beat until frothy; then gradually add the remaining 1/2 cup of sugar continuing to pump the Mr. Whipstir at a medium pace. Beat until the whites hold a stiff but not dry peak.
6. Working quickly, fold about a third of the egg whites into the chocolate to lighten; then fold in remaining whites until blended.
7. Gently ladle or spoon the souffle mixture into the ramekins, and place on a baking sheet. Be sure to level off the surface with a straight edge, scraping any excess mixture back into the bowl.
8. Immediately bake until the souffle rises about 1 1/2 inches from the ramekins, and the tops are touched with brown, about 18 to 20 minutes. Remove from oven, dust with confectioners’ sugar and serve immediately.
