Instruction

  • <p>Watch how to make the fondant:</p> <p></p> <p>Grease the ramekins with unsalted butter and place in the fridge to chill. Melt 150g of finely chopped, good-quality dark chocolate and unsalted butter together in a heatproof bowl, over a small saucepan of simmering water. Stir and leave to cool.</p> <p>Preheat the oven to 200ºC (400ºF/Gas 6). Whisk the eggs and caster sugar in a large bowl, until fluffy and tripled in volume. Whisk in the chocolate mixture until well combined. Sift the plain flour into the mixture and gently fold it in.</p> <p>Lightly dust the ramekins with cocoa powder, shaking off any excess. Half-fill the ramekins with the fondant mixture, spreading it out to form an even base. Shape the peanut butter into balls and place one in each ramekin. Divide the remaining fondant mixture between the ramekins, covering the peanut butter completely.</p> <p>Bake the fondants in the oven for 12 minutes, until the sides are set and the centre is soft to the touch. Leave to cool for 1 minute, before turning them out. Dust with cocoa powder, if desired, and serve immediately.</p>
