Cheese Souffle image

What a wonderful dish! Its easier then it sounds. I was a very very young cook when I made this for my family. My son, with his own family just recently asked me to make this again for him. My kids loved this dish.. and it really is simple to make.. The most important thing is your timing. It MUST be eaten as soon as it comes from the oven or it absolutely will fall!Enjoy! Delicious with a salad and dessert. MEMO: you do NOT grease your baking dish, or it will have nothing to cling to so it can climb. The directions in the book specifically said DO NOT GREASE!

This cheese souffle was a bit too dense for my taste. I think I might have overmixed the batter.
