CARAMELIZED ONION & CHEESE PASTRIES
I came up with this as an appetizer for my Christmas dinner, but now I serve it year round. I love French onion soup, and the caramelized onions, herbs and Swiss cheese make this taste like French onion soup in crisp, flaky crust. Don't worry about little tears as you work with the phyllo because after it's folded the tears and uneven edges disappear.-Elizabeth Brough, Eighty Four, Pennsylvania

Steps:
- Heat oven to 400°F
- Heat water and butter to rolling boil. Stir in flour, salt and garlic powder. Stir vigorously over low heat 1 minute or until mixture forms a ball; remove from heat. Beat in eggs until smooth. Stir in cheese and onion. Drop dough by scant teaspoonfuls 1 inch apart onto lightly greased baking sheet. Bake until puffed and golden, 20 to 25 minutes.
- Tip-Top Puffs: Place pimiento-stuffed olive or 1/2 inch-square cheese slice on each puff. Bake as directed.
- Filled Puffs: Place salted peanut, 1/2 inch ham or bologna cube or half of pimiento-stuffed olive on each puff. Top with enough dough to cover. Bake as directed.
Tips:
- Use a food processor to quickly and easily chop the onion.
- Be sure to grate the cheese finely so that it melts evenly.
- If you don't have self-rising flour, you can make your own by adding 1 teaspoon of baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon of salt to 1 cup of all-purpose flour.
- Don't overmix the batter, as this will make the puffs tough.
- Drop the batter by rounded tablespoons into the hot oil.
- Don't overcrowd the pan, as this will prevent the puffs from cooking evenly.
- Drain the puffs on paper towels to remove excess oil.
- Serve the puffs hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
