Ingredients

• 6 cups fresh spinach, chopped
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1.5 cups milk
• 5 eggs, separated
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 0.5 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
• 3 tablespoons sour cream
• 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 10x15-inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper. Grease the parchment paper lightly.

Step 2

In a large skillet over medium heat, sauté the chopped spinach until wilted. Remove from heat and allow it to cool. Press out any excess liquid with a paper towel once cool.

Step 3

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the flour and whisk continuously to create a smooth roux, cooking for about 1 minute.

Step 4

Gradually add the milk while continuing to whisk until the mixture thickens and is smooth. Remove from heat.

Step 5

Whisk the egg yolks into the milk mixture, one at a time. Stir in the salt, black pepper, grated Parmesan cheese, and sautéed spinach. Set the mixture aside.

Step 6

In a clean mixing bowl, beat the egg whites with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.

Step 7

Gently fold the egg whites into the spinach mixture in batches, being careful not to deflate the batter.

Step 8

Pour the mixture into the prepared jelly roll pan, spreading it evenly. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the soufflé is set and lightly golden.

Step 9

While the soufflé bakes, prepare the filling by combining the cream cheese, sour cream, and garlic powder in a bowl. Mix until smooth and creamy.

Step 10

Once the soufflé has baked, remove it from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes. Carefully invert the soufflé onto a clean kitchen towel or parchment paper.

Step 11

Spread the cream cheese filling evenly over the surface of the soufflé. Using the towel or parchment paper to help, gently roll the soufflé into a log, starting from the short edge.

Step 12

Place the rolled soufflé seam-side down on a serving platter. Slice into 1-inch pieces and serve warm or at room temperature.
