Author Notes
One of the first things I learned to cook from my mom was chocolate soufflé, which to this day remains one of my favorite desserts. Perfecting a soufflé can be quite a feat, yet my Mom had tricks to avoid disaster which made her a superwoman in my eyes.
Through the years I have tried many different variations of this dish. This is an easy recipe that has a soft and fluffy texture that you will not mess up! A surprisingly fast dish to make that is part carrot cake, part soufflé.
