Cooking Tip: Sprinkling ramekins with breadcrumbs or sugar helps the mixture rise; infusing the milk gives extra flavour; and folding in egg whites gently helps create light, fluffy soufflés.

Bring 250ml (8fl oz) semi-skimmed milk to the boil in a pan. Remove from the heat and gradually whisk into the egg mixture. Return to the pan and cook over a medium heat, stirring, until smooth. Remove from heat and stir in the chocolate mixture. Add the zest of 1 orange. Leave to cool slightly.
