At a glance
You're making a rich chocolate fondant that's all melted chocolate goodness with a gooey center. The prep is quick (just 15 minutes), the baking takes about 9 minutes, and you'll want to nail the timing so the center stays soft when you turn it out of the mould. Serve it warm with whipped cream, ice cream, and fresh fruit for the ultimate indulgent treat.

Water Bath
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Set up a water bath. Place the chocolate—chopped or broken into pieces—together with the butter in a bowl set over the water. Melt and stir until the mixture is smooth and combined.

Making the Batter
Take the bowl off the heat and stir in the sugar, eggs, and then the flour, adding it gradually. Mix well and pour into moulds you've buttered and dusted with cocoa beforehand. I like to use ceramic heart-shaped moulds or small ramekins.

Fill the Moulds and Bake
Fill the moulds about three-quarters full. Place them on a rack in the oven and bake for 8-10 minutes. Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, then carefully turn them out of the moulds.
