National Chocolate Soufflé Day | Easy Chocolate Soufflé
Happy National Chocolate Soufflé Day! It’s also National Chili Day (you can find a spicy white chili recipe here) so between the two, you have dinner and dessert. You’re welcome.
So, I have to admit that I’m not totally into this recipe, but you will be. It’s such a strong chocolate flavor, and being that I’m not a chocolate fan, I had to douse it in caramel sauce to get through. It’s a solid recipe and I wish I loved chocolate more. Gahhhhhh.
I really think I’d love a caramel soufflé. Ooo, that sounds good. Caramel Soufflé with caramel sauce. You can’t have too much caramel.
Anyway, i’m getting distracted. It’s Friday, which means that the weekend is upon us and National Fruit Compote Day is tomorrow, a dish that I’m so excited to share with you all.
