CHOCOLATE MINT SOUFFLES FOR TWO
Recieved this recipe from Taste of Home and couldn't wait to try it. I love that they only served two so perfect for DH and me when I wanted something special for just us. They came together easy, were light, fluffy and oh so chocolate. It calls for mint extract but I didn't have that so just used vanilla and it was still good. Think it'd be really good with the mint and maybe a little mint leave as garnish.

Tips:
- Use the freshest possible ingredients, especially the mint. Fresh mint will give your soufflés the best flavor.
- Make sure your oven is preheated to the correct temperature before baking the soufflés. This will help them to rise properly.
- Don't overbeat the egg whites. Overbeaten egg whites will make your soufflés tough.
- Fold the egg whites into the chocolate mixture gently. Overmixing will deflate the egg whites and make your soufflés fall.
- Bake the soufflés immediately after assembling them. The longer they sit, the more likely they are to fall.
- Serve the soufflés immediately. They are best enjoyed fresh out of the oven.
Conclusion:
Chocolate mint soufflés are a delicious and elegant dessert that is perfect for any special occasion. By following the tips above, you can make sure that your soufflés turn out perfectly every time.
Here are some additional tips for making chocolate mint soufflés:
- If you don't have any fresh mint, you can use 1/2 teaspoon of dried mint instead.
- You can also add a tablespoon of chopped chocolate chips to the chocolate mixture for a richer flavor.
- If you want to make your soufflés ahead of time, you can assemble them and then refrigerate them for up to 2 hours before baking. Just make sure to bring them to room temperature before baking.
Enjoy your chocolate mint soufflés!
