Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray.
Thaw the frozen spinach and squeeze out as much excess water as possible using a clean towel or cheesecloth. Set aside.
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the flour and whisk continuously for 1-2 minutes to form a roux.
Gradually pour in the milk while whisking, and cook until the mixture thickens into a smooth sauce, about 3-4 minutes.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper until combined.
Add the drained spinach to the cheese mixture and stir until evenly incorporated.
In a large bowl, beat the egg yolks lightly and slowly add them to the spinach mixture, stirring to combine.
In a separate bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form.
Gently fold the beaten egg whites into the spinach mixture in three batches, taking care not to deflate the mixture.
Spoon the spinach soufflé batter evenly into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the soufflés are puffed and lightly golden on top.
Serve immediately while warm, as the soufflés may deflate slightly as they cool.
