Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly spritz four 8-ounce ramekins with cooking spray and set aside.
Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the flour and whisk constantly for about 1 minute to form a roux.
Gradually add the skim milk, whisking continuously to avoid lumps. Cook for 2–3 minutes or until the mixture thickens and begins to simmer.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and Parmesan cheese until melted and smooth.
Transfer the mixture to a large bowl and let it cool slightly. Once cooled, whisk in the egg yolks, salt, and black pepper until fully incorporated.
In a separate clean bowl, beat the egg whites with the cream of tartar using an electric mixer on medium speed until stiff peaks form.
Gently fold the beaten egg whites into the cheese mixture using a rubber spatula. Be careful not to deflate the egg whites; mix just until incorporated.
Divide the soufflé mixture evenly among the prepared ramekins. Place the ramekins on a baking sheet for easy handling.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20–25 minutes or until the soufflés have risen and are golden brown on top. Do not open the oven during baking to prevent them from collapsing.
Serve immediately while still puffed and warm. Enjoy the light and cheesy perfection!
