Chocolate Soufflé with Raspberry Swirl

A rich and creamy chocolate soufflé filled with a sweet raspberry swirl, perfect for a romantic evening.

Ingredients

For the Soufflé:

  • 2 ounces high-quality dark chocolate (at least 70% cocoa), broken into small pieces
  • 1/2 cup (110g) granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup (30g) all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 cup (120ml) whole milk, at room temperature
  • 3 large egg yolks
  • 3 large egg whites

For the Raspberry Swirl:

  • 1 cup (200g) fresh raspberries
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Butter a 1-quart soufflé dish and coat with granulated sugar.
  2. In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt the chocolate, stirring occasionally.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour and salt.
  4. In another bowl, whisk together the milk and egg yolks.
  5. Temper the egg yolk mixture by gradually pouring it into the melted chocolate, whisking constantly.
  6. Add the flour mixture to the chocolate mixture and whisk until smooth.
  7. Beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form and set aside.
  8. Fold one-third of the egg whites into the chocolate mixture using a rubber spatula.
  9. Pour the batter into the prepared soufflé dish and smooth the top.

For the Raspberry Swirl:

  1. In a small saucepan, combine the raspberries and granulated sugar. Cook over medium heat until the berries have broken down and the mixture has thickened slightly.
  2. Stir in the cornstarch to prevent the mixture from becoming too runny.
  3. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes.

To Assemble:

  1. Remove the soufflé from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes.
  2. Using a spatula, gently loosen the edges of the soufflé.
  3. Spoon the raspberry swirl over the top of the soufflé.
  4. Return the soufflé to the oven for an additional 5-7 minutes or until the top is puffed and golden brown.

Tips

  • To ensure the soufflé rises properly, do not open the oven door during baking.
  • To serve, dust with confectioners' sugar and garnish with fresh raspberries.
