Ingredients

  • 1 cup dark chocolate
  • 1 cup butter
  • 1 cup caster sugar
  • 1 cup flour
  • 4 whole eggs
  • 4 egg yolks

Instructions

  • First, grease 4-6 molding cups with butter and refrigerate until chilled. Apply another coat of butter and set aside. Preheat oven to 200 C.
  • Melt dark chocolate and butter. You can either melt them over low heat or by holding a bowl with ingredients over a pot of boiling water. Ensure that water does not touch the bowl.
  • Once melted, grab a fresh bowl and combine eggs, yolks and sugar. Whisk vigorously to combine. Stir the flour in slowly until the mixture is thick. If it’s too thick, add one more egg.
  • Stir melted chocolate butter into the egg-flour mixture slowly, mixing after every small addition. Pour the fondant carefully into molds and refrigerate for 20-30 minutes.
  • Bake fondant fro 12 minutes or until it starts to separate from the side of the moulds. A crust should have formed on top. Gently loosen the fondant and tip it out of the moulds onto plates. Serve.
