In the spirit of “everything old is new again,” Healthy Helpings TV’s host Michelle Koen brings a dessert that packs a subtle, delicate tingle behind a fluffy cloud of chocolate decadence with a hint of coffee.
But a souffle? Don’t worry, Michelle will help you confront this intimidating dish which is equal parts science and desert. Will it rise? Will it fall?
The soufflé is the ultimate in fat free deserts. Its light and fluffy texture oozes indulgence and it’s a great way to get through all those egg whites you bought with the best of intentions, too.
