Ingredients:

Serving

6 tbsps. butter, cut into small pieces
1 cup water
1 tsp. salt
1 cup flour
1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper (you can always add more or not at all - it depends on your taste)
2 tbsps. chopped chives or parsley
5 eggs
1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
fresh ground salt and pepper

Directions:

Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
Combine butter, water and salt in a saucepan and bring to a boil, stiring often.
Remove from heat, then add flour, cayenne pepper and chives/parsley, stiring until the mixture is smooth.
Return to heat and continue to stir for about 1 minute to melt remaining lumps of butter.
Remove from heat and allow to cool somewhat.
Add eggs, one at a time, gently mixing in each egg completely before adding another egg.
While dough is still warm, mix in cheese, salt and pepper.
Spray baking sheet with non-stick spray and spoon out individual dough/cheese poofs onto baking sheet.
Poofs should be about 1 to 2 inches round.
You can also spoon mixture into muffin tins that have been sprayed with non-stick cooking spray.
Bake for approximately 15 – 18 minutes or until lightly golden brown in colour.
