Jonathan Garnier Unveils Easy Chocolate Fondant Recipe

Celebrity chef Jonathan Garnier has unveiled his latest culinary creation—a simple and comforting chocolate fondant recipe that can be made swiftly at home. The renowned chef shared this delightful dessert through various media outlets on October 7, 2024.

The recipe promises a total preparation time of one hour, including 15 minutes for preparation, another 15 minutes for baking, and 30 minutes of refrigeration. Designed to serve four, Garnier’s recipe is touted as both easy and quick, encouraging dessert enthusiasts to indulge in a homemade treat.

Garnier advises starting with preheating the oven to 200 degrees Celsius (400 degrees Fahrenheit), positioning the rack in the middle. The process begins with melting chocolate in a double boiler and then incorporating butter until smooth. In a separate bowl, eggs and sugar are whisked together before adding the melted chocolate mixture.

The chef further instructs mixing in cocoa powder, a pinch of salt, cornstarch, and baking powder. The final blend is to be divided into buttered ramekins and refrigerated for at least 30 minutes before baking for 14 minutes. Garnier stresses on serving the fondant immediately after baking for optimal enjoyment.

The ease of this recipe is echoed by contributors such as Geneviève O’Gleman and the team at Salut Bonjour, indicating its accessibility to amateur cooks and professionals alike. Published at previous dates in September 2024, these recipes have been warmly received by the culinary community.
