A friend invited me to go to a cooking demo at her church years ago, and one of the recipes prepared was this luscious soufflé. It was so easy—and absolutely delicious. ——oan Hallford, North Richland Hills, Texas

20 40 60

Ingredients

5 eggs
4 teaspoons plus 3/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup baking cocoa
6 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1-1/2 cups fat-free milk
2 tablespoons butter
1-1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Directions

Separate eggs; let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes. Coat a 2-qt. souffle dish with cooking spray and lightly sprinkle with 4 teaspoons sugar; set aside.
In a small saucepan, combine the cocoa, flour, salt and remaining sugar. Gradually whisk in milk. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Cook and stir 1-2 minutes longer or until thickened. Stir in butter. Transfer to a large bowl.
Stir a small amount of hot mixture into egg yolks; return all to the bowl, stirring constantly. Add vanilla; cool slightly.
In another large bowl with clean beaters, beat egg whites until stiff peaks form. With a spatula, stir a fourth of the egg whites into chocolate mixture until no white streaks remain. Fold in remaining egg whites until combined.
Transfer to prepared dish. Bake at 350° for 40-45 minutes or until the top is puffed and center appears set. Serve immediately. Yield: 6 servings.
