Melt the chocolate with the butter in a bowl over simmering water to 40-45c. Keep the simmering water for later.

Whip the egg whites until semi stiff, add the salt, white wine vinegar and cream of tartar. When thick, add the sugar and whip until thick.

Over the simmering water, gently add the yolks to the chocolate, then fold the meringue into the chocolate over the water, and repeat, adding in 3 stages. It may look a little split, but just keeping mixing gently until it emulsifies.

Place ½ the mix into buttered and sugared baking dishes or ramekins and add the peanut butter balls and top up with the mix.

Bake at 180c for 6-7 minutes if you want them nice & runny. If you prefer firmer, then cook for a few more minutes.
