Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams white chocolate
- 100 grams unsalted butter
- 2 large eggs
- 2 large egg yolks
- 100 grams granulated sugar
- 50 grams all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon butter (for greasing ramekins)
- 1 tablespoon cocoa powder (for dusting)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Grease four ramekins with butter and dust them lightly with cocoa powder, tapping out any excess.
Melt the white chocolate and unsalted butter together in a heatproof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water, stirring occasionally until smooth. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
In another bowl, whisk the eggs, egg yolks, and granulated sugar together until thick and pale, about 3-4 minutes.
Slowly pour the melted white chocolate mixture into the egg mixture, whisking gently to combine.
Sift the all-purpose flour into the bowl and fold it in using a spatula until the batter is smooth and well-incorporated.
Divide the batter evenly between the prepared ramekins, filling them about three-quarters full.
Place the ramekins on a baking tray and bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers are still slightly wobbly.
Remove the ramekins from the oven and let them sit for 1-2 minutes. Run a knife gently around the edges to loosen the fondants.
Carefully invert each ramekin onto a serving plate and gently lift it off to release the fondant.
Serve immediately, optionally dusted with powdered sugar or accompanied by fresh berries and a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
