How to make Mocha Cream Soufflé
- Step 1
In a small saucepan, melt one tablespoon of butter over low heat. Add the flour quickly and immediately incorporate the milk, which has been previously boiled with the sugar.
- Step 2
Mix well with a wooden spoon and continue cooking over low heat until the mixture thickens.
- Step 3
Remove the mixture from the heat and add the chocolate, which has been previously melted using a double boiler, the instant coffee, the remaining butter, and the cognac.
- Step 4
Allow the mixture to cool slightly and then add the egg yolks, which have been previously beaten. Mix well.
- Step 5
Beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form, adding one tablespoon of sugar while beating. Gently fold the egg whites into the previous mixture using soft, enveloping motions.
- Step 6
Pour the soufflé batter into individual ceramic dishes that have been greased with butter. Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for about 20 to 25 minutes.
