Brazilian Cheese Puffs


I love these cheese puffs. They are really wonderful with drinks and gluten free to boot - something i can offer a coeliac friend so they don't feel left out like they normally do. However, i've found that everyone i've offered them to loves them. I even made them when i went to london, and now my friend there can't stop eating them (or making them either). They are really cheesey and have a great chewy texture. Tapioca flour is easily obtainable from asian grocery stores and the other items are pantry staples.

Steps


Preheat oven to 200 degrees c / 400 degrees f.
Bring the milk , salt and butter to a boil.
Remove from heat.
Pour onto the tapioca flour , stirring constantly until thoroughly mixed.
Add the cheese and eggs.
Knead until smooth.
Roll into balls approximately 2-inches in diameter and place on a greased baking sheet.
Bake until golden brown , about 15-20 minutes.
Do not over bake.
Serve warm.
Should there be any left overs , they freeze very well.
