Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 ounces bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 tablespoons cocoa powder
3 egg whites
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
1/2 pint raspberries
1/2 pint blueberries
1/2 pint strawberries
3 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon framboise, Grand Marnier or orange juice

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Butter and flour 4 (4-ounce) ramekins. Combine chocolate and butter in a double boiler and melt. Stir in cocoa powder. In a bowl beat egg whites on medium speed until soft peaks form. Increase speed to high and gradually add sugar. Beat whites until stiff and glossy, but not dry. Whisk 1/4 of egg white mixture into chocolate, to temper. Fold in remaining whites. Fill ramekins 2/3 full and bake until top is slightly firm but still soft in the very center, about 6 to 8 minutes.
  • Combine raspberries, blueberries, strawberries, sugar and lemon juice in a saucepan and heat until fruit is softened. Remove from heat and puree in food processor until smooth. Strain through a sieve and stir in liqueur or orange juice. Chill.
