Grand Marnier Souffle

This Grand Marnier Souffle is now one of my favorites desserts! Having never eaten a standard Grand Mariner Souffle made with white sugar, I don't know if mine tastes "right," but I can tell you it is easy and delicious made with fruit-sweetened orange marmalade.

makes 2 individual souffles

1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon sifted powdered unrefined cane sugar (sold as "organic" powdered sugar)
2 whole eggs plus 1 egg white
2 heaping teaspoons fruit-sweetened orange marmalade
1 tablespoon Grand Marnier
1/4 teaspoon vanilla

1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
2. Butter two one-cup ramekins and dust the insides with powdered sugar.
3. Separate the eggs, placing the whites in a large mixing bowl and the yolks in a smaller bowl.
4. Beat the yolks, then add the marmalade, Grand Marnier, and vanilla and mix well.
5. Beat the egg whites to soft peaks.
6. Add about a third of the egg whites to the egg yolk mixture and fold to blend. Add the remaining egg whites and fold very gently, only until just blended.
7. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is puffy and golden brown.
