What it lacks in nutrition it makes up for in richness. Keep an eye on the time to make sure you get that all important melted chocolate centre.

What it lacks in nutrition it makes up for in richness. Keep an eye on the time to make sure you get that all important melted chocolate centre.

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 200C/ 400F/ Gas mark 6.

  2. Place the chocolate and the butter in a heat-proof bowl and place over a pan of boiling water and allow the mixture to melt. Once melted, remove from the heat and stir in the sugar.

  3. Once the mixture has cooled, add the eggs 1 at a time, followed by the vanilla essence. Sift in the flour and fold the mixture together.

  4. Pour the mixture into greased ramekins, approx. ⅔rds of the way. Place them in the oven for approx. 10 - 12 minutes. Once baked, turn out the chocolate fondants and serve warm.
