How to Make Frozen Maple And Bourbon Souffle

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 1 1/2-quart soufflé dish.
  2. Create a 2-inch high collar using parchment paper or foil. Wrap around the soufflé dish and secure with string.
  3. In a medium heatproof bowl, whisk together egg yolks, sugar, flour, and salt until well combined.
  4. Place the bowl over a pan of simmering water (double boiler). Whisk constantly until the mixture thickens and is smooth (about 5-7 minutes).
  5. Remove the bowl from the water bath.
  6. Using an electric mixer, beat the egg whites until stiff, glossy peaks form.
  7. Gradually whisk in the maple syrup, then the bourbon, into the egg yolk mixture. Continue beating until light and fluffy.
  8. In a separate bowl, beat the heavy cream until soft peaks form.
  9. Gently fold the whipped cream into the egg yolk mixture.
  10. Pour the mixture into the prepared soufflé dish, smoothing the top.
  11. Freeze overnight or for at least 5 hours, or until firm.
  12. Remove the soufflé from the freezer 30 minutes before serving to allow it to soften slightly.
  13. Carefully remove the parchment paper or foil collar.
  14. Press the chopped nuts into the sides of the soufflé.
  15. Serve immediately.
