Grand Marnier Soufflés
Soufflés can be individual-sized, made in small ramekins, or big enough to serve a crowd. Ours are the former. You can prepare them up to 4 hours in advance through Step 4, then hold them in the refrigerator (uncovered) until you’re ready to bake. In the case of early prep, add 5 to 7 minutes to cooking time.

Ingredients
- Neutral-flavored cooking spray (such as safflower oil or grape seed oil)
- 5 large eggs, separated, plus
- 2 large egg whites
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1 1/2 tsp pure orange extract
- 3 tbsp organic unsalted butter
- 3 tbsp white whole-wheat flour
- 1/3 cup plus 1 1/2 tsp organic evaporated cane juice, divided
- 1/4 tsp sea salt
- 3/4 tsp cream of tartar
- 1/4 cup Grand Marnier or other orange-flavored liqueur
Preparation
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Mist 6 8-oz ramekins with cooking spray and arrange on a rimmed baking sheet. In a medium bowl, whisk together egg yolks, milk and orange extract; set aside.
- In a large saucepan on medium, melt butter. Whisk in flour, 1/3 cup cane juice and salt. Cook, whisking occasionally, for 5 minutes, until slightly browned. Slowly whisk in milk mixture and cook, whisking constantly, until smooth and custard-like,about 1 minute. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.
- Meanwhile, using a mixer on high speed, beat egg whites until foamy. Add cream of tartar and continue beating until stiff peaks form.
- Stir Grand Marnier and about 1 cup egg white mixture into flour mixture. Fold in remaining whites in 3 additions and then divide batter among prepared ramekins.
- Sprinkle top of each soufflé with 1/4 tsp of remaining cane juice. Bake until nicely browned on top and a toothpick inserted into center comes out almost entirely clean, about 25 minutes. Serve immediately.
