This souffle was a bit too runny for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with a bit more time in the oven.

This is one of my favorite souffle recipes. It's easy to make and always turns out delicious. I like to add a bit of grated Parmesan cheese to the top before baking.

This souffle was a disaster. It didn't rise properly and it was very bland. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.
