Time 50m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 tablespoon butter, melted
1 tablespoon white sugar
5 teaspoons butter, melted
5 teaspoons all-purpose flour
¼ cup cold milk
2 egg yolks
1 teaspoon freshly grated orange zest
1 tablespoon brandy-based orange liqueur (such as Grand Marnier®)
⅛ teaspoon vanilla extract
2 egg whites
¼ cup white sugar, divided

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Brush the insides of 2 (8-ounce) ramekins with 1 tablespoon melted butter and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon sugar. Place on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil.
  • Melt 1 tablespoon butter and 2 teaspoons butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat; cook and stir flour in the melted butter until golden brown and fragrant, about 2 minutes. Pour in milk and cook, stirring continuously, until smooth and thick, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat and transfer to a mixing bowl.
  • Stir orange zest and 1 tablespoon brandy-based orange liqueur into butter mixture until combined. Add egg yolks and 1/8 teaspoon vanilla; mix until smooth.
  • Whisk egg whites in a large bowl until frothy. Slowly add half the 1/4 cup sugar and whisk until combined; add remaining sugar and continue to whisk until meringue is thick and holds it shape, but is not stiff.
  • Fold half the meringue into egg yolk mixture until combined. Gently fold in second half until well mixed. Transfer to the prepared ramekins, allowing 1/4-inch of space at the top.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until risen and browned, 16 minutes.

This soufflé was a bit dense for my taste. I think I might try a different recipe next time.
