Desserts A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W Y Z Velvet Fudge Souffle Categories: Desserts, Red wine
Yield: 16 servings
1/2 c Sugar
1/4 ts Salt
6 Egg yolks
16 oz Semisweet chocolate chips
1 1/2 c Chilled whipping cream
2 pk Unflavored gelatin
1 3/4 c Sweet red wine
6 Egg whites
1/2 c Sugar
Sweetened whipping cream
Extend height of 1-quart souffle dish 3 inches above dish with band of
double thickness aluminum foil; secure ends of foil by folding together,
taping or fastening with paper clips.
Mix 1/2 cup sugar, the gelatin, salt and wine in 2-quart saucepan. Beat egg
yolks slightly; stir yolks and chocolate chips into gelatin mixture. Cook
over medium heat, stirring constantly, just until mixture boils.
Chill pan in bowl of ice and water or refrigerator, stirring occasionally,
just until mixture mounds slightly when dropped from a spoon, 20 or 30
minutes. Mixture should be slightly thicker than unbeaten egg whites. If
mixture becomes too thick, place pan in bowl of hot water, stirring
constantly, until mixture is of proper consistency.
Beat egg whites until foamy in large mixer bowl. (Egg whites should be at
room temperature when beaten for best volume.) Gradually beat in 1/2 cup
sugar; beat until stiff and glossy. (Do not underbeat.) Fold thickened
gelatin mixture into meringue.
Beat 1 1/2 cups cream in chilled small mixer bowl until stiff; fold into
meringue mixture. Carefully turn into souffle dish. Refrigerate until set,
about 8 hours.
Just before serving, run knife around inside of foil band and remove band.
Garnish souffle with sweetened whipped cream.
