- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Butter ten 3/4-cup ramekins; dust with sugar. Bring milk, 2 1/2 tablespoons sugar, and salt to boil in small saucepan, stirring to dissolve sugar; remove from heat.
- Melt butter in heavy medium saucepan. Add flour; stir 1 minute. Whisk in milk mixture. Cook over low heat until mixture thickens and comes to a boil, whisking until smooth. Whisk in egg yolks and Chambord. Transfer to a large bowl.
- Using electric mixer with clean dry beaters, beat egg whites in another large bowl until foamy. Gradually add remaining 5 tablespoons sugar, beating until soft peaks form. Fold egg whites and 1 cup berries into milk mixture. Divide remaining 3/4 cup berries among ramekins. Spoon souffle batter over, dividing evenly. Place ramekins in a large roasting pan. Add enough water to pan to come halfway up the sides of the ramekins.
