February is chocolate month and to help you celebrate and give you an excuse to have some chocolate, I give you CHOCOLATE SOUFFLE!!... courtesy of yShine and Better homes and garden. souffle's are super super easy and a quick way to impress ur friends with minimal effort. I've made souffles professionally for years and believe me it's the easiest chocolate dessert to make. ok now get out there and try it! lolingredients
Nonstick cooking spray
Sugar
4 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
1/2 cup whipping cream
4 egg whites
2 tablespoons sugar
directions
1. Preheat oven to 400 degree F. Coat insides and rims of four 6-ounce ramekins with nonstick cooking spray. Sprinkle with sugar and set on a baking sheet; set aside.

2. In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine chocolate and cream. Micro-cook on 100 percent power (high) for 1-1/2 to 2 minutes or until smooth, stirring twice. Divide in half. Cover and cool to room temperature.

3. In a medium mixing bowl, beat egg whites with an electric mixer on medium speed until foamy. Gradually add sugar, beating until soft peaks form (tips curl).

4. Gently fold half of the cooled chocolate mixture into the beaten egg whites until combined. Spoon mixture into prepared ramekins. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center of soufflés comes out clean. Serve immediately. To serve, open the centers of the souffles with two spoons and pour in remaining chocolate mixture. Makes 4 servings.
