One of My Favor Desserts – Chocolate Fondant

Recently, I finally found a recipe for making a chocolate fondant, as before I can only find the recipes for chocolate pudding.

Actually, it’s a lovely dessert which recalls my memory when I was in HK … chatting and laughing with my best friends after delicious meal in a small cafe in Kowloon Tong!!















The recipe is listed below:
1. Turn the oven on to 180 degree.
2. Brush the insides of the aluminium mould with soft butter, then spoon in some cocoa powder. Turn the mould in a circular motion and tap until the inside surface is fully covered with the cocoa powder.
3. Place the (50g) dark chocolate and (25g) butter in the heat-proof bowl, and place it over a pan of bowling water. Leave it to melt.
4. Beat the (2) eggs in a separate bowl. Slowly incorporate sugar. Mix until airy and fluffy.
5. Sieve the (25g) all purpose flour into the melted chocolate-butter mixture. Mix until no flour crumbles are seen.
6. Now add the egg mixture into the chocolate-butter mixture so they are both in the same bowl.
7. Pour the mixture into the prepared aluminium mould. Place into the oven for 8 – 10 minutes.
8. Serve with ice-cream, seasonal fruits (Mango slices and puree sauce) and a sprinkle of icing sugar.

Unfortunately, I failed to make it ---- the chocolate inside didn’t melt and come out as expected. Anyway, it still looks pretty good, doesn’t it? I will try it again.

Hope to share a successful one with you all very soon.
