Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Butter 6 8 ounce ramekins or a 2 quart souffle dish, then sprinkle with about 1/4 cup sugar.
• Place blackberries in a food processor or blender and pulse until pureed. Squeeze through a sieve or strainer to extract juice, discard solids. Add enough water so that you have 2 cups liquid. Add 1/2 cup sugar to juice and heat in a medium saucepan over medium high heat until boiling; remove from heat.
• Melt butter in another large saucepan over medium heat. Add flour and whisk thoroughly. Slowly pour hot juice mixture into flour mixture while whisking vigorously. Cook 1 minute, remove from heat. Whisk in egg yolks, then Chambord.
• In a clean, dry bowl, beat egg whites with a mixer until frothy. Gradually add remaining 1/2 cup sugar until soft peaks are fomed. Stir 1 cup of the egg whites into blackberry mixture. Fold remaining egg whites into blackberry mixture.
• Spoon into ramekins or souffle dish making sure to fill only 3/4 full. Bake 20 to 25 minutes for ramekins or 30 to 40 minutes for large souffle. Carefully remove from oven once it has risen. Serve immediately.

INDIVIDUAL GRUYERE SOUFFLES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
• Place four 1/2-cup souffle dishes into the refrigerator to chill.
• Separate the eggs, placing the yolks in one bowl and the whites in larger bowl.
• With one tablespoon of the butter, butter the bottom and sides of each souffle dish, paying special attention to the sides. Place in refrigerator.
• Melt the remaining butter in a saucepan and add the flour, stirring with a wire whisk. Blend well, but do not brown the flour. Add the milk, stirring rapidly with the whisk, add the salt and pepper, nutmeg and cayenne. Bring to a boil and cook for 30 seconds, stirring.
• Blend the cornstarch and water and add to the bubbling sauce. Stir and cook for about two minutes. Add the yolks, stirring vigorously. Cook, stirring, for about a minute.
• Spoon and scrape the mixture into large mixing bowl. Add the cubed Gruyere, blend well with a wire whisk. Set aside.
• Beat the egg whites in a mixing bowl, preferably copper. With a flexible balloon-shaped wire whisk or a hand beater, beat them until stiff and thick. Add half of the whites to the souffle mixture and mix thoroughly. Add the remaining whites, folding them in quickly but gently with a rubber spatula.
• Spoon and scrape even amounts of the mixture into each souffle dish. The mixture should fit inside the dish to about a quarter-inch from the top of the dish. With your thumb, create a channel around the periphery of the dish to allow for expansion. Sprinkle the top with the grated gruyere.
• Place the dish on a baking sheet on the bottom rack of the oven and bake for 12 to 15 minutes. Serve immediately.
