chocolate souffle

Fluffy baked cocoa

A chocolate soufflé is a light, airy French dessert made by folding whipped egg whites into a chocolate base, then baking until it rises dramatically above the rim of its dish.

The structure is famously delicate—soufflés begin deflating within minutes of leaving the oven, making timing essential: The waiter rushed the chocolate soufflé to the table.
