Soak half of the cookies
in half of the liqueur and put them on the bottom of 4 soufflé
pots. Mix the flour with a few tablespoons milk and bring the rest of
the milk to the boil. Add the flour mixture, simmer three minutes, stir
well. Add the egg yolks. Crumble the remaining cookies and add. Beat
the egg whites with the sugar until fluffy and add them to the mixture.
Put this on top of the cookies. Bake the soufflés 15 minutes at
200 degrees Celsius. Sprinkle with
the remaining liqueur.
