- Here's how it all comes together. First, butter your soufflé molds and dust them with sugar. In a small saucepan, combine the milk and butter and bring to a boil over low heat. Separately, whisk together the egg yolks, sugar, and flour, then pour in the milk and mix well. Return the mixture to the saucepan and cook over the same low heat, stirring, until thickened. Add the chopped chocolate and wait for it to melt. Stir again until smooth and add a few drops of vanilla extract (or vanilla). Transfer the cream to a bowl. In a separate bowl, whip the egg whites and fold them into the cream, adding a few small pieces of chocolate as well, then gently fold everything together with a whisk so the whites don't deflate. Divide the mixture into 4 portions, spoon into the molds, and bake for 30 minutes at 350°F (180°C). Whatever you do, don't open the oven during baking, or the soufflé will collapse! Then you can dig into this delicate little work of art. There's no one this dessert won't win over!
