Measure enough foil to wrap around a 2 quart soufflé dish with 6 inches to spare. Fold foil into thirds lengthwise. Lightly butter one side. With buttered side in, position foil around dish, letting it extend 2 inches above the top. Fasten the foil. For cheese sauce, in a saucepan melt margarine or butter, stir in flour and red pepper. Add milk all at once. Cook and stir until thickened and bubbly. Remove from the heat. Add cheese, 1 cup at a time, stirring until melted. In a bowl beat yolks with a fork until combined. Slowly add cheese sauce to yolks, stirring constantly. Cool slightly. In a bowl beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Gently fold about 2 cups of the stiffly beaten whites into cheese sauce. Gradually pour cheese sauce over remaining stiffly beaten whites, folding to combine. Pour into the ungreased soufflé dish. Bake in a 350ºF. oven for about 50 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. Gently peel off foil, serve soufflé immediately. Makes 6 servings Cheese Soufflé 2
