Banana chocolate-chip souffles *jb

6 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
3 larges Egg whites
⅓ cup Sugar
2 Firm-ripe bananas (each about 6 ounces)
2½ tablespoon Miniature semisweet chocolate chips

Directions

Note: Can be prepared in 45 minutes or less.

Preheat oven to 450 F. and lightly butter six ¾-cup ramekins (3½ inches in diameter by 1 ½ inches high).

In a bowl with an electric mixer beat whites until they just hold soft peaks and gradually beat in sugar until meringue holds stiff peaks.

Coarsely grate bananas onto meringue and gently fold with chocolate chips into meringue.

Arrange ramekins on a baking sheet and divide mixture evenly among them, mounding it in centers. Run a knife around sides of ramekins, freeing mixture to aid rising, and bake soufflés in middle of oven until puffed and golden brown, about 15 minutes.

Serve soufflés immediately.

Serves 6.
