Cheese Soufflés
Ingredients
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter
  • 2 tablespoons white sugar, or as needed
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon white sugar
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest
  • 2 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1/3 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
  • 1 pinch salt
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to the high heat setting of 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius).
2
Next, take a stick of butter and rub it all over the bottom and up the sides of two 5 1/2-ounce ramekins. Then, sprinkle some sugar into the butter and give the ramekins a quick spin to coat them evenly. After that, pour most of the sugar back into its container and move on.
3
Now, separate your eggs into two separate bowls. Add a generous amount of sugar, flour, 1/4 teaspoon of salt, vanilla extract, lemon zest, cream cheese, and Cheddar cheese to the yolks. Using a spatula, mix everything together until the sugar and flour have completely vanished.
4
In a separate bowl, sprinkle a pinch of salt over some room-temperature egg whites. Then, use a whisk to beat them until they form soft peaks that hold their shape but aren't stiff or dry. After that, gently stir and fold 1/2 of the egg whites into the souffle base until everything is well combined. Finally, gently fold in the rest of the egg whites into the batter.
5
Fill your ramekins up to the top with the batter, making sure not to spill a single drop.
6
Finally, bake your souffles in the preheated oven for about 12 minutes, or until they're puffed up and nicely browned. Then, serve them immediately.
