Ingredients
2 ½ tablespoons unsalted butter at room temperature
½ cup sugar
1 ½ squares unsweetened chocolate
¼ cup lowfat milk
1 jumbo egg, separated
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
3 tablespoons flour
¼ cup chocolate sauce
½ cup heavy cream, whipped
Preparation
- Step 1
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Butter a 16-ounce souffle dish with half a tablespoon of the butter and line the bottom with waxed paper.
- Step 2
Cream the remaining butter with the sugar. Melt the chocolate in the top of a double boiler. Stir in the milk, then blend into the butter mixture. Beat in the egg yolk and stir in the vanilla and the flour.
- Step 3
Beat the egg until softly peaked and fold into the chocolate mixture. Spoon the batter into the prepared dish, put the dish in a pan of boiling water that comes halfway up the sides of the dish, put in the oven and bake about 40 minutes, until the top is firm to the touch.
- Step 4
Remove from the oven and allow to sit in the warm water for at least 30 minutes. To serve, run a knife around the inside of the baking dish, unmold onto a plate, peel off the waxed paper and spoon the chocolate sauce around the pudding. Serve with whipped cream on the side.
