• Cooking spray
• 2 teaspoons granulated sugar
• 1/2 cup water
• 1/4 cup powdered sugar
• 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa
• 2 tablespoons 1% low-fat milk
• 1 1/2 teaspoons all-purpose flour
• 1 large egg yolk
• 1/8 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 large egg white
• 1/8 teaspoon cream of tartar
• 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
• 2 teaspoons powdered sugar

Preheat oven to 350°.

Coat 2 (8-ounce) ramekins with cooking spray, and sprinkle with 2 teaspoons granulated sugar. Place the ramekins on a baking sheet; set aside.

Combine water and next 5 ingredients (water through egg yolk) in the top of a double boiler. Cook over simmering water until thick (about 10 minutes), stirring constantly with a whisk. Remove from heat; add vanilla.

Beat egg white and cream of tartar at high speed of a mixer until soft peaks form. Gradually add 1 tablespoon granulated sugar, beating until stiff peaks form. Gently fold one-fourth of egg white mixture into chocolate mixture; gently fold in remaining egg white mixture.

Spoon evenly into prepared ramekins. Bake at 350° for 20 minutes or until puffy and set. Sprinkle each soufflé with 1 teaspoon powdered sugar. Serve immediately.
