Decadent Chocolate Fondant 1 Star2 Stars3 Stars4 Stars5 Stars 4 Ratings August 06, 2015

Do you love chocolate? So do we! Try this decadent Chocolate Fondant Recipe… It will give you the ultimate chocolate fix and leave the biggest smile on your face, after that first bite…

Ingredients:

50g melted butter, for brushing
cocoa powder, for dusting
200g good-quality dark chocolate, chopped into small pieces
200g butter, in small pieces
200g golden caster sugar
4 eggs and 4 yolks
200g plain flour

Method

1. First get your moulds ready. Using upward strokes, heavily brush the melted butter all over the inside of the pudding mould. Add a good spoonful of cocoa powder into the mould. Tip the mould so the powder completely coats the butter. Tap any excess cocoa back into the jar, then repeat with 1 the next mould.

2. Place a bowl over a pan of barely simmering water, then slowly melt the chocolate and butter together. Remove bowl from the heat and stir until smooth. Leave to cool for about 8-10 mins.

3. In a separate bowl whisk the eggs and yolks together with the sugar until thick and pale and the whisk leaves a trail; use an electric whisk if you want. Sift the flour into the eggs, then beat together.

4. Pour the melted chocolate into the egg mixture in thirds, beating well between each addition, until all the chocolate is added and the mixture is completely combined to a loose cake batter.

5. Tip the fondant batter into a jug, then evenly divide between the moulds. The fondants can now be frozen for up to a month and cooked from frozen. Or if you are making it for that night, its ready to bake straight away!

6. Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Place the fondants on a baking tray, then cook for 10-12 mins until the tops have formed a crust and they are starting to come away from the sides of their moulds. Remove from the oven, then leave to sit for 1 min before turning out.

7. Loosen the fondants by moving the tops very gently so they come away from the sides, easing them out of the moulds. Tip each fondant slightly onto your hand so you know it has come away, then tip back into the mould ready to plate up.

8. Starting from the middle of each plate, squeeze a spiral of caramel sauce – do all the plates you need before you go on to the next stage.

9. Sit a fondant in the middle of each plate. Using a large spoon dipped in hot water, scoop a ‘quenelle’ of ice cream.

10. Carefully place the ice cream on top of the fondant, then serve immediately. Repeat with the rest of the fondants.

Voila! You can now make one of the best chocolate desserts in the world, this dessert is guaranteed to impress.

4. Add wine,cook until liquid reduces a little, add mushrooms thyme & oregano.

5, Add chopped tomatoes, the remaining ingredients stir well then cover and cook on lowest possible heat for a 2 1/2 hours. The secret to this dish is long, slow cooking as to allow the flavors to meld.

6. As this dish slowly simmers you will need to add more liquid; use either wine or a little water.I find a little wine does best.

7. After two hours or so remove from heat, remove bay leaves, add 3 tbsp of B-well creamy gourmet mayonnaise, stir well, serve with hot pasta or spaghetti with fresh baked garlic bread and grated cheese.
