Ingredients
12 egg yolks
13 egg whites
600 gms dried panettone
100 gms butter
200 gms with chocolate
150 gms sugar
15 gms potato starch
15 gms '00' flour (finely ground Italian flour)
Method
1. Mix the egg yolks with half of the sugar until you get the right creaminess.
2. At the same time, melt the butter with chocolate. Mix it with the egg yolks.
3. Add the flour with potato starch and sift to avoid any lumps.
4. To the mixture, add the dried-then-powdered panettone.
5. Add egg whites with the remaining sugar.
6. The consistency of the mix should be very creamy. Place the soufflé in a lightly greased mould.
7. Bake them at 190C for 12 minutes.
8. Once done, place the soufflé on the plate without removing it from the mould. Add a scoop of vanilla ice cream and serve and enjoy, or as I would say... Buon natale e buonappetito!
