- Make the batter: Melt butter. Add flour and potato flakes and cook for a few minutes. Add warmed milk and cook for 3 more minutes. Place in a large bowl to cool.
- Using a mixer, whip egg whites and cream of tartar until they form stiff peaks.
- Once milk mixture has cooled, stir in cheddar cheese, Gruyere, sour cream, chives and egg yolks. Fold in egg whites one spoonful at a time.
- Divide mixture among the prepared ramekins. Bake on center rack for 20 to 30 minutes until puffed up and golden brown. Serve immediately with crumbled bacon, sour cream and more chives.
