Cheddar Gougeres image

Gougeres-French cheesy cream puffs-are usually made with Gruyere cheese but I often substitute with the sharpest cheddar I can find for bolder flavor. Make this recipe your own with the cheese of your choice. -Bridget M. Klusman, Otsego, Michigan

These gougeres were a bit too dry, but they had a good flavor. I think I'll try adding some more liquid next time.

These gougeres were a little too eggy for my taste, but they were still good. I think I'll try using less eggs next time.
