Thanks for the advice Bob. The souffle recipe I use is last minute for the
baking part, but the batter can be done in advance, and it's pretty simple.
I know there's always all this talk about how difficult they are, but these
are some of the easiest desserts I've ever made! lol And alot less labor
intensive than the torte. On the other hand, the torte is sooooo decadent.
Oh decisions, decisions!
