Baked chocolate fudge is a true delight for dessert lovers. Originating from French cuisine, this treat embodies luxury and sophistication. The exquisite balance of dark chocolate and butter creates a tender texture with a rich, intense flavor that melts in your mouth. A light crispy crust outside contrasts with the soft, almost liquid center, revealing deep chocolate notes. This dessert is perfect for festive dinners or romantic evenings. Served warm to fully unveil its velvety taste, its elegant appearance is complemented by fresh berries or light vanilla ice cream. A true symbol of gastronomic pleasure, it offers moments of pure happiness in every bite.
1
Grease the inside of 6 metal rings (diameter 5 cm, height 4-5 cm) with oil. Line each mold with non-stick baking paper, so it is slightly higher than the rings. Place them on a baking tray lined with baking paper.
2
Whisk the eggs in a bowl, then add the yolks and sugar, whisk again to achieve a uniform consistency.
- Chicken egg: 2 pieces
- Egg yolk: 2 pieces
- Sugar: 120 g

Place a bowl over a pot of boiling water and melt finely chopped chocolate and unsalted softened butter in the bowl. Remove the bowl from the pot and gently stir the chocolate. Cool for a minute or two, then pour the chocolate into the egg mixture, stirring constantly. Add the sifted flour and whisk well to avoid lumps. Chill for 30 minutes.
- Dark chocolate 70%: 90 g
- Butter: 90 g

Spoon the mixture into metal rings, filling them about two-thirds full. Place in the refrigerator for 3-4 hours.

Preheat the oven to 180 degrees.

Place the fudge to bake in the center of the oven for 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool for 2 minutes, then carefully remove the rings and gently separate the fudge from the paper. Transfer the fudge to small plates with a spatula, trying not to shake them as they are very fragile. Serve immediately.
