Chocolate Souffle Cake Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375°F. Spray bottoms only of 8 jumbo muffin cups or 10 ounce (large size) custard cups with cooking spray. In 1-quart saucepan, heat chocolate, margarine and 1 teaspoon coffee over low heat, stirring constantly, until melted and smooth; cool slightly.
• In medium bowl, beat 4 egg whites with electric mixer on high speed until stiff peaks form; set aside.
• In another medium bowl, beat egg yolks and yogurt on medium speed until blended. Gradually beat in granulated sugar, brown sugar and chocolate mixture. Stir in flour, cocoa and cinnamon just until blended. Fold in egg whites. Spoon into muffin cups.
• Bake 20 to 22 minutes or until firm to the touch. Cool 5 minutes (centers of cakes will sink slightly). Remove from muffin cups to cooling rack. Cool 15 minutes.
• In 1-quart saucepan, heat syrup, powdered sugar and 1/2 teaspoon coffee over low heat, stirring constantly, until smooth.
• Place cakes on individual plates. Drizzle with topping. Serve with whipped topping.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 300 degrees. Grease a 10-inch springform pan with 1 tablespoon butter, and dust generously with granulated sugar.
• Melt chocolate and butter over simmering water in a double boiler, about 6 to 8 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.
• In an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, whip yolks and whole egg with 2/3 cup sugar on a high speed, until it is pale yellow and falls in a thick ribbon when the beater is raised, about 5 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl once or twice during mixing. Set aside.
• In an electric mixer, using a second whisk attachment and bowl, (both should be clean and free of grease) whip egg whites with remaining 1/3 cup sugar on high speed until thick and foamy, about 3 to 4 minutes. Set aside. While egg whites are beating, add the cooled, melted chocolate slowly to the yolk mixture.
• Temper whipped egg whites by mixing in about 1/4 cup of the chocolate mixture. Then gently fold egg whites into the chocolate yolk mixture, working quickly to maintain the volume of egg whites; the mixture will have a slightly marbleized appearance.
• Pour batter into prepared pan, and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake in oven for 50 to 60 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool in the pan on a cooling rack. When completely cool, gently run a knife around the edges of the pan and release spring. Dust with cocoa powder or confectioners' sugar before serving.

Steps:

• Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 350°F. Butter a 9-inch springform pan and line bottom with a round of parchment or wax paper, then butter paper.
• Melt chocolate and butter in a large metal bowl set over a pan of barely simmering water (or in a microwave-safe large glass or ceramic bowl in a microwave at 50 percent power for 4 to 5 minutes), stirring frequently, then cool completely. Whisk in vanilla, salt, and 6 tablespoons sugar. Add yolks 1 at a time, whisking well after each addition. Whisk in flour.
• Beat whites with a pinch of salt in a bowl using an electric mixer at medium-high speed until they hold soft peaks, then add remaining 6 tablespoons sugar a little at a time, beating, and continue to beat until whites hold stiff glossy peaks.
• Whisk about one fourth of whites into chocolate mixture to lighten, then fold in remaining whites gently but thoroughly. Pour batter into springform pan, spreading evenly.
• Bake until a wooden pick or skewer inserted in center comes out with moist crumbs adhering, 35 to 40 minutes.
• Cool cake in pan on a rack 10 minutes. Remove side of pan and cool cake completely. Invert cake onto rack and remove bottom of pan, discarding paper, then invert cake onto a plate.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 325°F. Grease springform pan, 9x2 1/2 inches, with shortening. In 2-quart heavy saucepan, heat 1 cup of the chocolate chunks and 1/2 cup butter over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until melted. Cool 5 minutes. Stir in flour until smooth. Stir in egg yolks until well blended.
• In large bowl, beat egg whites and cream of tartar with electric mixer on high speed until foamy. Beat in 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, until soft peaks form. Fold about 1/4 of the egg whites into chocolate mixture; fold chocolate mixture into egg whites. Spread in pan. Sprinkle 2/3 cup chocolate chunks evenly over top.
• Bake 35 to 40 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center of cake comes out clean (top will appear dry and cracked). Cool 10 minutes. Remove side of pan; leave cake on pan bottom. Cool completely on wire rack.
• Just before serving, in 1-quart saucepan, heat 1/3 cup chocolate chunks, 3 tablespoons granulated sugar and the milk over medium heat, stirring constantly, until chocolate is melted and mixture boils. Remove from heat; stir in 1/2 teaspoon butter.
• In chilled small bowl, beat all Sweetened Whipped Cream ingredients with electric mixer on high speed until stiff peaks form. Place cake on serving plate. Drizzle servings of cake with sauce. Serve with whipped cream. Sprinkle with candies.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Brush bottom and sides of 2 (5-ounce) ramekins lightly with 1 teaspoon melted butter; cover bottom and sides right up to the rim. Add 1 tablespoon white sugar to ramekins. Rotate ramekins until sugar coats all surfaces. Pour off extra sugar.
• Place chocolate pieces in a metal mixing bowl. Place bowl over a pan of about 3 cups hot water over low heat. Do not let water boil or come to a simmer.
• Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a skillet over medium heat. Sprinkle in flour. Whisk until flour is incorporated into butter and mixture thickens, about 1 minute. Reduce heat to low. Whisk in cold milk until mixture becomes smooth and thickens, 2 or 3 minutes. Remove skillet from heat. Transfer mixture to bowl with melted chocolate. Add salt and very small pinch of cayenne pepper. Mix together thoroughly. Add egg yolk and mix to combine. Leave bowl above the hot (not simmering) water to keep chocolate warm while you whip the egg whites.
• Place 2 egg whites in a mixing bowl; add cream of tartar. Whisk until mixture begins to thicken and a drizzle from the whisk stays on the surface about 1 second before disappearing into the mix, 2 or 3 minutes. Add 1/3 of sugar and whisk in. Whisk in a bit more sugar about 15 seconds; whisk in the rest of the sugar. Continue whisking until mixture is about as thick as shaving cream and holds soft peaks, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Transfer a little less than half of egg whites to chocolate. Mix until egg whites are thoroughly incorporated into the chocolate, 1 or 2 minutes. Add the rest of the egg whites; gently fold into the chocolate with a spatula, lifting from the bottom and folding over. Stop mixing after the egg white disappears. Divide mixture between 2 prepared ramekins. Place ramekins on prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in preheated oven until scuffles are puffed and have risen above the top of the rims, 12 to 15 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F Line bottom of 8-inch springform pan with 2-3/4-inch high sides with parchment paper.
• Spread pan and paper with vegetable oil spray.
• Sprinkle pan with 2 tablespoons sugar.
• Finely grind nuts with 2 tablespoons sugar in processor.
• Transfer nut mixture to large bowl.
• Mix in 10 tablespoons sugar and cocoa, then oil.
• Using electric mixer, beat egg whites and salt in large bowl until soft peaks form.
• Fold whites into cocoa mixture in 3 additions.
• Spoon batter into prepared pan; smooth top.
• Bake until cake puffs and tester inserted into center comes out with moist crumbs attached, about 30 minutes.
• Cool cake in pan on rack about 30 minutes.
• (Cake may fall.) Cut around pan sides to loosen cake.
• Remove sides of pan and cool cake completely.
• Sprinkle cake with powdered sugar.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease 6 glass custard cups; place cups on a baking sheet.
• Beat egg whites and sugar together in a bowl using an electric mixer until stiff peaks form, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Heat chocolate chips and butter in a pot over low heat, stirring frequently, until melted, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat. Add in 1 egg yolk at time, stirring continuously. Add water and flour, stirring continuously. Fold in the beaten egg whites until just combined. Fill each custard cup about 2/3 full with batter.
• Bake in the preheated oven until cakes rise slightly over the top of the cups and cracks form on their surface, 15 to 18 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325.
• Combine chocolate and butter in the top of a double boiler, stirring until all is melted and combined.

• Pour batter into prepared pans/dishes.
• Bake at 325 degrees for 9-12 minutes.
• Serve immediately.
• Note: You can prebake these and then reheat them in a preheated 325 degree oven for 2-3 minutes.
