In a mixing bowl, melt the chocolate to a temperature of 122/131°F (50/55°C). Add the soft butter. Meanwhile, beat the egg whites. Gradually add the sugar to ensure a smooth texture to the meringue. Add a small amount of meringue to the chocolate-butter mixture, followed by the egg yolks. Add the rest of the meringue, folding in by hand with a spatula. Line the desired molds with baking paper and pour the batter into a piping bag. Depending on the mold size, use approximately 60g (2.12oz) to fill. Refrigerate until ready to cook, or place in the freezer for longer storage. Bake at 356°F (180°C) for about 5 minutes. The centre should be liquid when served.
