Steps:

• Wrap a parchment paper or aluminum foil collar around the outside of the individual ramekins; the collar should be about 1 inch above the top of the dish. Secure each collar with a small amount of butter. Place ramekins in the fridge to cool.
• In an electric mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, whip the heavy cream until it forms soft peaks. Set aside in the refrigerator.
• In a large, heavy saucepan, cook the sugar and water over medium-high heat until it reaches the soft ball stage at 235 to 240 degrees F, about 3 minutes (see Cook's Note**). (Do not overcook the sugar.) Meanwhile, place the yolks into the bowl of an electric mixer and turn to high speed. Slowly add a little of the hot sugar syrup. Decrease speed to medium and add the remaining syrup in a slow, steady stream (see Cook's Note***). Continue to whip for about 5 to 8 minutes, until the mixture is thick and cool. Remove the bowl from the mixer. Whisk in the orange-flavored liqueur and orange zest (see Cook's Note****). Mix in 1/4 of the whipped cream until well incorporated, then fold in the remainder.
• Spoon into the ramekins and fill about 1/2-inch above the ramekin. Freeze until set, about 2 hours. Remove the collars and serve.

Steps:

• In top of a double boiler or a metal bowl over simmering water whisk egg yolks and sugar until blended. Stir in liqueur, water, orange juice and zest. Cook over low heat until mixture is just thick enough to coat a metal spoon and a thermometer reads at least 160°, about 10 minutes, stirring constantly but gently. Do not allow to boil. Immediately transfer to a bowl., Place bowl in an ice-water bath for a few minutes, stirring custard occasionally. Cool to room temperature. In a large bowl, beat cream until it begins to thicken. Add confectioners' sugar; beat until stiff peaks form. Gently fold into cooled custard mixture., Transfer to eight 4-oz. ramekins; smooth tops. Freeze until firm, at least 4 hours or overnight. Garnish with additional orange zest.

FROZEN GRAND MARNIER SOUFFLE

Steps:

• Combine the eggs and granulated sugar in the top of a stainless steel double boiler and, being careful not to scramble the eggs, whisk over gentle heat until the mixture is golden in color and thick enough to coat the back of a spoon in ribbons. Remove from the heat and set the mixture aside to cool.
• While the egg mixture is cooling, prepare four 1/2 cup souffle dishes by cutting waxed paper long enough to encircle each souffle dish twice, and stand 3 to 4 inches above its top. Wrap the waxed paper snugly around the outside of the dish and seal the edges with transparent tape. Butter the inside of the dish with softened butter, then sprinkle with granulated sugar, tapping out any excess sugar onto a plate.
• Using an electric mixer, combine 1 cup of the heavy cream, confectioners sugar, and Grand Marnier, orange zest and whip into firm peaks. With a spatula, gently fold the whipped cream into the egg mixture. Pour the mixture into the buttered souffle dishes, filling them above the rim and into the area enclosed by the waxed paper.
• Place the souffles into the freezer, for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight. When ready to serve, whip the remaining cream until soft peaks form, remove from the frozen souffle from the freezer, and carefully remove the waxed paper collar. Top with a dollop of whipped cream and several orange segments.

FROZEN GRAND MARNIER SOUFFLE

Steps:

• Put the egg yolks and sugar in a mixing bowl and beat on medium speed until mixture is almost white and very fluffy, 3-5 minutes.
• In a small saucepan, bring 1/2 cup heavy cream to boil.
• Beating the egg yolk mixture continuously on low speed, pour in the hot cream in a thin stream until fully incorporated.
• Briefly heat 2 tbsp grand marnier.
• In another bowl, using clean beaters, whip the remaining cream at medium speed until it is firm enough to form stiff peaks that hold their shape when the beaters are lifted out.
• Briefly beat in 2 tbsp more of the grand marnier.
• Put the ladyfingers in a shallow bowl and drizzle them with the remaining grand marnier, leaving them to soak for several minutes.
• With a rubber spatula, stir about a third of the whipped cream into the egg yolk mixture.
• If you want to make the dessert look like a souffle, take a length of parchment paper, waxed paper, or aluminum paper about 2 inches longer than the circumference of a 1-quart souffle dish.
• Fold the paper lengthwise in half and wrap it around the rim, rising about 3 inches above the rim, using freezer proof tape to tape it securely in place.
• Spoon one-third of the mixture into the souffle dish (or loaf pan).
• Arrange three of the ladyfingers evenly on top.
• Top with another one-third of the mixture, then the remaining ladyfingers, and finally the remaining souffle mixture.
• Put the dish or pan in the freezer and freeze for several hours, until the souffle is firm.
• Remove from the freezer about 20 minutes before serving, to soften slightly at room temperature.
• To serve, dip a serrated knife in hot water.
• If using a souffle dish, remove the paper collar and cut horizontally even with the rim to free the top portion of the souffle and then cut it into wedges; continue serving the portion inside the dish by cutting wedges and carefully lifting them out with a cake slicer.
• To serve from the loaf pan, dip the pan briefly in hot water, then unmold onto a platter and cut into slices.
• Serve on chilled dessert plates, garnished if you like with candied orange peel and fresh berries.

• In a large, deep bowl, preferably copper, beat the egg whites until stiff. Toward the end, beat in the remaining 2 tablespoons sugar. (You can use an electric stand mixer, but keep an eye on the egg whites. They should not be too stiff.)
• Spoon the egg-yolk mixture into the whites, folding in rapidly. Place equal portions of the mixture in the prepared souffle dishes.
• Put the dishes on a baking sheet, and place on the bottom of the oven. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, and serve immediately.
