- 1/4 teaspoon of salt
- 3 large eggs, separated

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease four 1-cup ramekins with butter.

In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate and butter together, stirring until smooth.

In a small saucepan, heat the milk until scalding hot.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt. Gradually whisk in the hot milk until smooth.

Whisk in the egg yolks, one at a time, followed by the melted chocolate mixture. Set aside.
-
In a clean mixing bowl, beat the egg whites and cream of tartar until stiff peaks form.
-
Gently fold the beaten egg whites into the chocolate mixture until well combined.
-
Divide the mixture evenly among the prepared ramekins, filling them about 3/4 full.

Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until the soufflés have risen and are set around the edges but still slightly jiggly in the center.

Remove from the oven and dust with powdered sugar. Serve immediately.
