I found this recipe in Quick Cooking magazine and recently served them at a baby shower brunch I threw. They are delicious. I added a few more veggies than the original recipe.
Cheesy Egg Puffs
1/2 lb. fresh mushrooms, sliced 4 green onions, chopped 1/2 cup red pepper, finely chopped (my addition) 1/2 cup asparagus, finely chopped (my addition) 1 tbsp. plus 1/2 cup butter, divided 1/2 cup flour 1 tsp. baking powder 1/2 tsp. salt 10 eggs, lightly beaten 4 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese 2 cups small curd cottage cheese
In a skillet saute the vegetables in 1 tbsp. butter until tender. In a large bowl, combine flour, baking powder and salt. In another bowl, combine eggs and cheeses. Melt remaining butter; add to egg mixture. Stir into dry ingredients along with vegetables.
Fill greased muffin cups three-fourths full. bake at 350 degrees for 35-40 minutes or until knife test is clean. Carefully run the knife around the edge of muffin cups before removing.
Yield: 2 1/2 dozen
