Soufflé Grand Marnier

8 egg yolks
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup Grand Marnier or liqueur of your choice
10 egg whites
Butter and sugar (to coat baking dish)

Beat egg yolks and sugar in a pan held over (not in) a pan of boiling water until they form a wide ribbon when a wooden spoon is inserted and lifted. Remove from the heat and stir in the liqueur.

Beat the egg whites until stiff and gently fold into the egg yolk mixture. Coat the inside of an 8-inch soufflé dish or straight-sided baking dish with butter and sugar. Transfer the egg mixture to the baking dish and bake in a preheated 400 degree F oven for 12 to 15 minutes, until firm. Serve immediately.

Serves 4 to 6.
