ReplyDeleteLooking forward to trying the cheese souffles. In a college class (about a hundred years ago) we made a variety of of souffles one day and it was the funnest experience. I'd been looking for a recipe to try this out again and I love that this one can be done in a couple of ramekins. Thanks a bunch!
