I dislike bourbon, so subbed calvados. I also added a bit of Parmesan and salt. It just tasted like booze, and we all hated it. Would have been lovely without the cheese and with a liqueur like Grand Mariner, and less of it (a tbsp). That's what happens when you read the comments!

Well, I had leftover riced sweet potatoes & chorizo w/ dried mushrooms, in red wine, but not quite enough for a full dinner from leftovers, so I tried this fine recipe for a soufflé and used the chorizo like a sauce. I made a few modifications as we don’t cook with butter, using sheep yogurt instead of milk butter and chicken broth with a splash of Grand Marnier, which I had on hand, instead of bourbon, which I did not. Next time i think I’ll add a little grated parmesan and a bit of salt.
