Ingredients:

Whipping Cream
Granulated Sugar
White Chocolate (such as Lindt), coarsely chopped
Egg Yolks, room temperature
Grated Orange Peel
Grand Marnier
Egg Whites, room temperature
Pinch of Cream of Tartar
Powdered Sugar

Additional Items:

• 2 Large Bowls

Directions:

Preheat your grill to medium, and set for indirect cooking (350ºF).
Generously butter a 6-cup soufflé dish, sprinkle dish with sugar; roll dish around to coat all surfaces, then tap out the excess.
Add a buttered and sugared aluminum foil collar that extends 2-3 inches above the rim of the dish. Tie with butchers twine.
Heat cream and 1/4 cup sugar in a medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves.
Add 6 oz of white chocolate and stir until the chocolate dissolves.
Whisk in egg yolks and orange peel.
Cook until the mixture thickens slightly, stirring constantly, about 5 minutes; do not boil.
Whisk in the Grand Marnier.
Transfer the mixture to a large bowl.
Using an electric mixer, beat the egg whites and cream of tartar in large bowl until soft peaks form.
Add 2 tbsp of sugar and then beat until stiff peaks form.
Mix 2 oz of the chopped chocolate into the warm egg yolk mixture, then fold in the egg whites in 2 batches.
Transfer the mixture to your prepared soufflé dish.
Bake over indirect heat on your grill, until the soufflé is puffed and the top is golden brown, about 35 minutes.
Dust with powdered sugar and serve.

This moist orange-flavored soufflé is rich with white chocolate. Offer snifters of orange liqueur, with a mandarin orange segment and cherry on a toothpick floating inside, to sip alongside.
