How to Make Brie And Cheddar Souffle

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Butter a large (approximately 9x13 inch) baking dish.
  3. Layer the bottom of the dish with a single layer of thinly sliced challah bread (approximately 6-8 slices).
  4. Sprinkle half of the brie (4 ounces) and cheddar (4 ounces) cheese evenly over the bread.
  5. Add a second layer of challah bread (approximately 6-8 slices) on top of the cheese.
  6. Sprinkle the remaining brie (4 ounces) and cheddar (4 ounces) cheese over the top layer of bread.
  7. In a medium bowl, whisk together: 6 large eggs, 1 cup milk, 2 tablespoons chopped green onions, 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley, 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, 1 teaspoon paprika, and 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes.
  8. Season the egg mixture generously with salt and pepper to taste.
  9. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the bread and cheese layers.
  10. Cover the baking dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight.
  11. Remove the souffle from the refrigerator 1 hour before baking to bring it to room temperature.
  12. Bake for 45-60 minutes, or until the souffle is puffed, golden brown, and set.
  13. Let the souffle rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
