Not a soufflé. And I'm tired of people (restaurants) mislabeling food. It's not hip; it just abuses the language.

Sorry, this isn't a souffle, although it looks like a good molten chocolate cake. A real souffle isn't daunting at all, needs no additional equipment or ingredients, and only adds a couple of steps to the process. (Just one caution - don't overbeat the egg whites) The results are REALLY worth it. GO ahead - try the real thing.
