I'll look up the goats cheese soufflé as I'm partial to chèvre. Your chocolate Grand Marnier is making me salivate!

We love love love souffles if they are made properly! And, you really should try making a souffle at home. They are very easy to make if you have a good stand mixer. We occasionally make them on weekday evenings if we want something indulgent because they only take about 30 minutes or so to pull together and then it is just a matter of baking it. [If you don't have a good stand mixer, it will be a bit more difficult; I have tried making them with my hand-held mixer and the results, while good, just aren't the same as with a stand mixer because the whites don't get as stiff.] I have a cobbled together recipe that I pulled from a couple of different sources for a chocolate grand marnier souffle, and I swear, it is just as good as the best souffles I have had in restaurants. Unfortunately, everything is packed right now, so I don't have it on hand. Another good version is the Epicurious goat cheese souffle that has a round of goat cheese baked into the souffle itself.
