    How to Prepare Easy Chocolate Fondants [Vegan]

    1. Start by making the gooey ganache center. Melt the chocolate over a bain-marie and whisk in the cream. Pour this mixture into a container and place in the freezer to set for 1 to 2 hours.
    2. When you’re ready to make the fondants, preheat your oven to 355 ̊F (180 ̊C). Lightly grease four pudding molds with vegan butter and dust with a layer of cocoa powder.
    3. To make the sponges, using a wooden spoon, cream together the olive oil and sugar until slightly pale. Pour in the warm water and milk and whisk together.
    4. Sift the self-rising flour, cocoa powder and baking soda. Fold these into the wet ingredients along with the instant coffee and salt until you’re left with a smooth, chocolaty batter.
    5. Add a little of the mixture into the base of each of your pudding molds to fill about one-fourth of the way. Scoop out a little of your set chocolate filling and mold it into a rough ball. Place these into each of the pudding cups and cover with more of the batter to fill your molds three-fourths of the way to the top.
    6. Bake the fondants for 15 minutes, then allow to cool for a couple of minutes. To serve, gently loosen the edges with a knife, place a plate on top and carefully flip to release the fondant. Garnish with fresh mint, and serve with fresh fruit or vegan ice cream if desired.
