Soufflés have the stigma of being a difficult dessert to prepare. They are known to fail if the temperature is not correct, or if the mixture is not whipped to the right consistency. I’ve wanting to prepare one for a while now and this year, I decided to bite the bullet and give it a try. I love the flavors of autumn and I found it appropriate to dedicate an afternoon to my kitchen concentrating on baking a perfect soufflé. The result: success!
