Instructions

  1. 1 Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  2. 2 Brush butter on the bottom and up the sides of two 5 1/2-ounce ramekins. Scoop in some sugar; rotate ramekins to coat while pouring most of the sugar back into its container. Place ramekins on a shallow baking pan.
  3. 3 Separate eggs between 2 bowls. Add sugar, flour, 1/4 teaspoon salt, vanilla extract, lemon zest, cream cheese, and Cheddar cheese to the yolks. Mix the souffle base with a spatula until sugar and flour disappear.
  4. 4 Sprinkle a pinch of salt over the room-temperature egg whites. Beat with a whisk until soft peaks form; peaks should hold their shape but not be stiff or dry. Stir and fold 1/2 of the egg whites into the souffle base until combined. Gently fold the rest of the egg whites into the batter.
  5. 5 Fill ramekins up to the lip with the batter.
  6. 6 Bake in the preheated oven until puffed and browned, about 12 minutes. Serve immediately.

Instructions

  1. 1 Bring water and sugar to a boil in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Heat to between 234 and 240 degrees F (112 to 116 degrees C), or until a small amount of syrup dropped into cold water forms a soft ball that flattens when removed from the water and placed on a flat surface, about 15 minutes. Lightly oil a baking sheet.
  2. 2 Remove the syrup from the stove, then stir in the vanilla extract, baking powder, cinnamon, and curry powder. Add the pecan halves, return the saucepan to the stove, and stir until the pecans are well coated with the sugar mixture. Continue cooking and stirring until the sugar sticks to and hardens on the pecans, about 5 minutes. Spread out onto prepared cookie sheet and allow to cool to room temperature before breaking into individual pieces.
