Failed Chocolate Souffle

I recently tried a chocolate soufflé at a restaurant in Marfa, Tx. While the name of the restaurant escapes me, I can still remember exactly what the soufflé tasted like. I haven’t thought of it all year until now, and I am determined to make my own version. So here is my first attempt…which was an epic fail, but I actually still ate two of them. After I snapped the photo my beautiful souffle immediately deflated. It was sad, and I am not sure if it could have been avoided by leaving it in the oven longer. After a tear or two I decided to eat it anyways.

I will be tweaking it, maybe less eggs, more butter…and definitely more chocolate!!!
