- 9 large egg yolks

- 3.In a clean bowl, using clean beaters, whip the egg whites at high speed until soft peaks form. Gradually add the remaining 2 tablespoons of sugar and beat until the egg whites are glossy, about 1 minute. Fold the egg whites into the chocolate mixture and pour into the souffle dish. Bake in the center of the oven for about 25 minutes, until the souffle is risen, cracked and slightly jiggly. Carefully transfer the souffle to a trivet and serve right away.
