About


These little gems make a lovely hors d’oeuvres on their own or stuffed Makes about 40 little bite-sized puffs! They puff up about 12 minutes into baking and are ideal for stuffing with a piping funnel (I bought a really cheap one from a dollar store and it works very well). Stuff with goat cheese or your own recipe.

These look delicious! I tried making them before and they completely flopped, more like cheese pancakes :( I'm going to try this recipe. Thanks! Sheri
