Andrew Enriquez’s Dark Chocolate Soufflé
Ingredients:
188 grams of milk
34 grams of flour
34 grams of butter

5 egg whites
135 grams of dark chocolate
Teaspoon of salt
Steps:
1. Preheat oven to 375°F.
2. Butter each ramekin (or mug) thoroughly, being careful not to miss any spots. (Unbuttered spots will cause your soufflé to stick.)

4. In a small pot combine 188 grams of milk and 75 grams of sugar, and bring to boil on medium heat.
5. Add the flour and butter mixture to the hot milk until dissolved, cook for 4 minutes on low heat until mixture has a thick gummy texture.
6. Add chocolate, and stir until melted and well-incorporated.
7. Add egg yolk to chocolate base, and whisk until well-incorporated.
8. Using a whisk, whip egg whites into a light foam.
9. Add sugar (23 grams), and continue to whisk until stiff, glossy peaks form.
10. Gently fold the egg white mixture into the chocolate base.
11. Fill ramekins (or mugs).
12. Bake for 17 minutes.
13. Serve à la mode, and enjoy.
