By Bostoncook

Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons parmesan cheese
• 1 1/4 cups 2% low-fat milk
• 3 tablespoons butter
• 3 tablespoons flour
• salt and pepper
• 1 pinch cayenne
• 4 egg yolks
• 1 cup shredded Swiss cheese
• 6 egg whites

Preparation

Step 1

1. Heat oven to 400. Spray souffle dish and sprinkle with parmesan.

2. Heat butter in saucepan. Add flour and stir over low heat for a few minutes. Whisk in milk. As it thickens, add salt and pepper and cayenne. Remove from heat. Beat in yolks one at a time, then stir in cheese. Don't worry about getting it smooth.

3. Beat whites with a pinch of salt until firm peaks form. Fold 1/4 of egg whites into cheese base, then fold in the rest. Place in oven, lower heat to 375. Bake 30 minutes or until golden and just a bit wobbly in the center. Serve immediately.

Excellent.
