My family used to make these for special occasions, or random visitors! Basically a gougere! They can be baked and frozen then just brought out and thrown in a toaster oven when needed! Sometimes I like a stronger mustard taste so I double the dry mustard. I'm guessing at the amount of servings as I don't think I've ever made a single batch of this recipe - haha. Ingredients:
1 cup water |
1/3 cup butter |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 cup flour |
5 eggs |
1 1/2 cups edam cheese or 1 1/2 cups gruyere cheese, shredded |
1 cup ham, chopped (can be leftover baked ham or deli ham) |
1/4 teaspoon dry mustard |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
2. Combine water, butter, and salt in a saucepan and bring to a boil.
3. Add the flour all at once, stirring vigorously, until the batter leaves the sides of the pan and a ball of paste forms.
4. Remove from heat and allow to cool for about a minute.
5. Add eggs, one at a time, beating vigorously after each one until the dough is smooth.
6. Stir in cheese, ham, and dry mustard.
7. Place heaping teaspoonfuls on a lightly greased baking sheet.
8. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes until firm and golden.
9. IF FREEZING: Allow to cool completely and store in an airtight container between layers of wax paper.
