Chocolate Fondant

Nearing the end of the beloved MasterChef Challenge now. It has been super fun creating this blog. Don't know what I will do next...

I know it has been a while since I last blogged but I am very committed to completing a dish a week which featured on the show in some shape or form. This recipe featured in Week 12, Masterclass. I modified it slightly, but not to the actual fondant...you will see what I mean after you read on.

First, melt the butter and chocolate. No tricks to that really. Rather then use ramekins, I decided to use food rings to present my chocolate fondant. Buttered them twice and then coated with cocoa. Got a little messy but I guess that is expected.

Next step was the eggs and sugar mixture. I didn't have my stand mixer with me so I used the hand held. It took a little while but it did the trick. I added this mixture to the chocolate, with a gentle folding action. Then fold in sifted flour.


Voila! That was it! It was a pretty simple recipe, in terms of ingredients and steps. The slight modification I mentioned earlier, was just regarding the amaretto shake. Instead, I served it with cream and some fresh strawberries. and blueberries. Sorry about the picture quality! Really need so start carrying a camera around with me.
