Macaroni-Cheese Puff image

This is for the Zzar World Tour - Floozies - in the French category. Since it's baked in a souffle dish, it might fit this category. I tried it the first time June 23, 1987, and it's from the Better Homes and Gardens Calorie Counters Cookbook. I have yet to remember to time any of my recipes so preparation and cooking times are estimates.
