Chive and Cheddar Cheese Puffs image

Perfect puffs require baking right after the dough is made. Baking a lot at one time requires multiple racks spaced evenly apart in the oven. With the extra-large capacity of Samsung's Flex Duo Oven (NE595R1) 5.9 cubic foot range and its three racks, you can easily accommodate several batches of puffs at once. They taste best served warm!

Yield Makes about 60

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup whole milk
1/2 cup water
5 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 teaspoon Kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
5 large eggs
4 ounces extra-sharp aged cheddar cheese, shredded (1 cup)
1/3 cup minced fresh chives

Steps:

  • 1. Arrange one oven rack in the top third of the oven and the other in the bottom third. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • 2. In a large saucepan, heat the milk, water, butter, salt, and cayenne over medium heat to a simmer, stirring to melt the butter. Turn off the heat and add the flour all at once. Stir vigorously until smooth and a thin film of dough sticks to the bottom of the pan. Transfer the dough to a mixing bowl.
  • 3. Using an electric mixer, beat the dough on low speed for 1 minute to cool it down. Raise the speed to medium and add the eggs, one at a time, beating very well after each addition. Continue beating, scraping down the bowl occasionally, until the batter is shiny, smooth, and elastic. Reduce the speed to low and beat in the cheese and chives.
  • 4. Drop the batter by teaspoons onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing the mounds 1 inch apart. Bake for 15 minutes, switch the positions of the baking sheets, and bake for 12 to 15 minutes longer or until golden brown, domed, and firm to the touch. Serve warm.

I'm allergic to chives, so I used green onions instead. The cheese puffs still turned out great! I love the way the green onions add a bit of color and flavor.

I added some crumbled bacon to my cheese puffs and they were amazing! The bacon adds a nice smoky flavor that really takes them to the next level.

I'm not a fan of cheddar cheese, so I used mozzarella instead. The cheese puffs still turned out great! They're nice and gooey on the inside, and the chive flavor really shines through.

These cheese puffs are the perfect comfort food. They're cheesy, savory, and just the right amount of crispy. I love to serve them with a big bowl of soup or chili.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cheese puffs turned out really dry. I think I might have overcooked them.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my cheese puffs didn't turn out as golden brown as the ones in the picture. They were still delicious, though!

These cheese puffs were a bit too bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more seasoning next time. Otherwise, they were pretty good.

I'm not a huge fan of chives, but I decided to give this recipe a try anyway. I'm so glad I did! The chives actually add a really nice flavor to the cheese puffs, and they're not overpowering at all. I'll definitely be making these again.

I love how versatile this recipe is. I added some chopped bacon and diced jalapenos to mine for a little extra flavor, and they were delicious! Next time I think I'll try adding some crumbled sausage.
