Butterscotch Souffle’
If I mention making a souffle most people will run and hide. Souffles, while in reality are very easy to make, seem to invoke fear into the hearts of the average cook. Maybe it is because you have to order them at the beginning of your meal in most restaurants. This is so they can be made fresh, as a great souffle waits for no man. You actually can have them ready to go and then pop them into the oven as your guests are finishing their meal. The critical part is when they come out of the oven, serve immediately, while they are still puffed up.
Look, if they “fall” serve them anyway. The lightness and taste will overcome any objections. Just float a little more liquor on top.

Carefully fold some of the egg whites into the yolks. combine the rest of the egg whites and yolks. pour into prepared ramekins, about 2/3 of the way up. Place in the hot oven on the bottom rack and bake for 12 -15 minutes until golden brown and they have risen above the rim of the ramekin. Sprinkle with powered sugar and serve immediately. Place a spoon in the center of each and add a Tb of Butterscotch Liquor.
