Chocolate Souffle - Tuesdays with Dorie

Chocolate Souffle - Food Librarian
For this week's Tuesdays with Dorie selection, Susan of She’s Becoming DoughMessTic selected Chocolate Souffle, on page 406 of Dorie's book, Baking: From My Home to Yours. Susan is such an active baker! She is a true artist too...you should see some of her custom cookies and cakes. I don't understand how anybody actually eats her creations, they are too pretty!

I made 1/4 of the recipe and did it all by hand. I have the cutest mini ramekins and 1/4 would have made 5 of them. I baked the minis for 17 minutes at 400 degrees.

Souffles are impressive and yet pretty easy to make! If you can whip egg whites and fold ingredients, you can make a nice souffle. Impress your friends with this delicious dessert.

  17. I have been such a bad blogging friend Mary! I fell behind on my commenting in the past week or two but I'm catching up now. I can't wait to see everything you've been baking/cooking up around here lately.

    Your souffles are, of course, gorgeous! Weren't they easy and delicious? I ate both of my minis myself :)

  18. Your pictures make me wish I had used my little ramkins too.

    I also like your watermark--label on the picture. Really adds some class I think.

  19. yours look sooooo wonderful! I saw the posts about quartering the recipe and halving it...and was going to..but then went all-in and did the full recipe. Next time, I will do the ramekins (so as not to eat so darn much of it!)

    Wait--did you say you did it all by hand?! Whites and all?! Good for you! :)

  22. You must have bulging biceps! By hand??? I'm impressed... these look fantastic! Another set of wonderful souffles - I must be doing something wrong. Love the photos - chocolate looks so incredible against (in) anything white. :) Nicely done!
